We are currently seeing a tech boom that is significantly changing the way we work and how we think about HR as potentially game-changing HR technology solutions emerge.
Here are five ways technology is altering the HR landscape.
AI is improving hiring intelligence
Recruiting new employees is a time-consuming and expensive process, but automation and AI are making it simpler to locate talented individuals who are a great fit for your business. There has been a wave of innovative tech solutions for hiring, from robot interviewers to automated resume screeners.
Compliance is more streamlined and advanced.
For HR staff, maintaining compliance has frequently been a huge concern. Laws and regulations are continually evolving and frequently necessitate voluminous documentation and information.
Analytics improve performance oversight.
An essential HR function for a long time has been performance management. The process has been led by HR professionals who have kept an eye on employee performance, gathered supervisor input, and organized routine employee reviews. The process has been streamlined and many extra stages have been removed thanks to HR technology, but now performance management is entering its next, data-driven phase.
Better analytics promote inclusion and diversity
Additionally, customers are increasingly seeking out businesses that respect diversity, which will affect hiring practices.
HR’s expanded strategic role
With the aid of technological advancements, HR professionals may now spend less time on administrative duties and more time on problems that call for more direct intervention.
As the department continues to be supported by technology that streamlines administrative tasks and frees up our time and resources to make a more strategic impact on the organization, HR’s role as an administrative function will continue to shift to HR being a strategic advantage for the organization, according to GoodHire’s Turman.
