IMPACT OF TECHNOLOGY ON HRM

Recruiting Transformed by the Internet


Before the internet and email, connecting with job seekers meant phone,
face time or a letter. In the 21st century, it's routine for companies to post
openings online, and require job seekers to apply through an online
applicant tracking system. That frees up a great deal of time that HR
would have spent dealing with paper resumes or personal calls.

However, Online forms have a standardized format that often makes it


hard to tell a star performer from a slacker. 

Ease of Communication
With email, text and messaging apps it's easier than ever for HR staff to
stay in touch with the rest of the company. If a manager wants to share a
new schedule with a project team, one email with an attachment or a
conversation on Slack can share the word with a dozen people at once.
There's a risk of relying too much on tech as a time-saver though.
Information in a two-page email may be better off delivered to the group
face to face. That way everyone can ask questions and hear the answers.

Data Analysis of Employee Performance


Analyzing employee performance used to depend on personal
assessments and obvious standards: Did the employee finish the task on
time? Does their boss trust them?

Technology makes it easier to gather and break down data on employees


to get an overall picture. Which tasks do they perform best? Do they meet
all the goals from last year's performance appraisal? If they fell short, was
it by 12 percent, 50 percent or 75 percent? Software programs can even
take over much of the work in evaluating employees.
Data management and critical analysis
Data management becomes easier when IT is used and it becomes
paper-free. Many of the monotonous work is no longer manual. This
increases the efficiency of the work and the effectiveness of it.
Organizational performance can lead to the timely success of the
business whether in a stable or an unstable environment. Jobs that do not
offer much variety in their performance and are of a highly repetitive
nature are disliked by employees and eventually results in low retention or
decreased effectiveness.
