Summary
My focus is on the use and role of information technology in meeting the challenges facing Human Resources (HR). The functions of HR have expanded tremendously over the years in such a way that very few organizations are now able to perform these diverse roles effectively. The core functions of HR can be summarized thus:
Labour Sourcing
• Demand forecasting
• Recruiting
• Contractor Hiring
• Supplier Relations
• Offer Negotiations
• On-Boarding
Workforce Management
• People-Deployment
• Development
• Compensation
Services Labour Relations
• Compliance
• Organizations
Post-Employment
• Termination
• Benefits
• Re-Hires
• References
• Records
In the face of contemporary business realities, some questions elucidating the pressures and considerations that HR must be faced:
Development and Retention
• How can I develop an agile workforce to support my changing business?
• How can I attract workers with key competencies and skills?
