Abstract

A Human Resource Information System (HRIS) provides an integrated perspective of HR


functions and activities, enabling organizations to provide their employees with a higher degree
of service and support. The following is an introduction of how an HRIS can streamline HR
processes and enhance the employee experience.

An HRIS is designed to be the "brain" of human resources management. It gathers all data from
individual departments at your company in order to present a single, centralized view of the
workforce. This includes information on employees, benefits, payroll and finance, along with
payroll timekeeping for transactional purposes as needed. A good HRIS will provide employees
and managers with real-time information that improves how they run the business.

HR departments need to be able to respond quickly and accurately to business needs, as such,
most organizations are starting to rely on technology for the management of their HR
operations. By integrating all aspects of human resources into one system that can be accessed
by any authorized user, an organization will be able to automate their practices in a way that can
eliminate redundant processes, reduce errors, streamline employee access and reinforce
current policies. A strong HRIS can ensure that your workforce is flexible and ready to adapt as
the business needs change.

The impetus for employee and management benefits is growing. There is a growth in the global
marketplace and there is a need to increase service levels and employee satisfaction. With the
integration of HR information into an HRIS, it guarantees that employees are well taken care of
and come first through a greater sense of security and compliance. The sophistication also
encourages higher efficiency as well as productivity, which can help businesses to reduce costs.
An example of an HRIS is the General Electric (GE) Global Talent Management (GTM) platform
which provides integrated human resource management across all business units, including
finance, communications, engineering, procurement and sales and marketing functions.

In the HR function, an HRIS can be an invaluable tool for organizing and tracking activities. It
allows you to see metrics on performance trends and employee development, thus allowing you
to easily identify areas where improvement is needed. An HRIS will be able to make informed
decisions on compensation, benefit options and recruitment processes. In this sense, it
becomes a powerful tool for managing talent and business processes within the organization.

The benefits of having an HRIS in place can help your organization from a strategic perspective
as well. HRIS technology allows you to identify the potential of your workforce and align it with
business goals. By doing this, you are able to streamline operational processes, which will be a
substantial cost-saving measure over time. This is because you will receive better information
and data on hiring trends, so changes can quickly be made based on market needs.

The development of an HRIS allows employees and management to take advantage of


technology to enhance employee experience. With the use of an HRIS in place, employees can
receive real-time updates on their benefits status or changes in their payroll information. This
eliminates the need for them to go through bureaucratic processes that slow down their
day-to-day operations. An HRIS also allows employees to access information on training, career
opportunities and other resources.

An HRIS can help simplify institutionalized processes. There are multiple software modules that
integrate with the HRIS and allow users to access all relevant documents. These provide a
real-time view of how the organization is functioning and suggest changes based on employee
feedback or performance trends.

A lot of internal resources are needed for individuals to be able to manage their business
aspects, which may not be available due to budgetary constraints or because they are
concentrated on other work needs that are outside the scope of human resource management.
As such, it is vital for an organization to provide the tools and technology needed for managers
and employees to be able to effectively manage their workflow. An HRIS can offer convenient
ways for employees to access policies, benefits information and make transactions like enrolling
in their health plan online. It can also give managers the details they need to effectively run their
departments.

An HRIS also provides an integrated platform where necessary HR functions can be carried out
with effective results. This also allows employees to accomplish tasks electronically instead of
having them do things in person at the office or have paperwork filled out by hand. This speeds
up many of the processes that are traditionally done by hand, thus making the business more
efficient and cost-effective overall.

HRIS can also integrate with other back-end business systems to provide a more intimate view
of the business. Information and data can be connected to other systems like finance or payroll
to give a comprehensive look at operations and specific needs. This also allows HR managers
and employees to analyze performance indicators they might not have access to in order to
make informed decisions. An HRIS frees up the time of HR managers by streamlining the
administrative functions, thus making them more productive.

Introduction

For an organization to achieve its desired competitive advantage, an effective human resource
information system is required. This awareness of the need for HRIS and its use in streamlining
management processes and enhance employee experience has led to a boom in HRIS hiring
companies with expertise in the recruitment and development sector. In this blog, we would like
to introduce what HRIS is in detail, its strengths as well as where it stands today. We would also
like to describe how different software designs have been implemented by companies such as
IBM, Oracle and others that are used by organizations worldwide.
Human resource information systems help management streamline their business processes.
As the knowledge of HR processes increases, the desire to improve on them also increases.
With today's generation working on their mobile devices, companies are looking for ways to
make hiring process more seamless, thereby increasing the efficiency in managing a diverse
workforce spread across multiple locations.

The main goal of implementing HR information systems is to enable a company's leadership


with tools and technology that will enable them to run a business using standardized and
measurable methods that improve employee satisfaction and management productivity. The
intent is to ensure that these HRIS implementations take place in a manner that enables growth
and expansion of an organization.

HRIS are structured programs that facilitate management in the hiring, maintaining and
nurturing of employees. HR is an important factor in workforce management as it ensures that
an organization has the right staff to accommodate its business demands. This is achieved via
the application of appropriate processes, systems and methods. However, it is important to note
that HRIS systems have to be matched with a company's culture as well as their recruitment
strategy and philosophy of management.

In today's highly competitive environment where constant change determines success for
organizations, HRIS implementors have a number of choices when designing their systems. It
also depends on whether an organization are using desktop or mobile systems, with the latter
being more popular nowadays.
It can also be determined by an HRIS implementor's choice of implementing a system that is
cloud-based or on-premise, with the former being more common.

There are five types of HRIS software: 1) applicant tracking systems, 2) time and attendance, 3)
search and selection, 4) learning management systems (LMS), 5) compensation management
solutions.

Applicant tracking system (ATS): An applicant tracking system is an online application that
provides information about job candidates. It gives recruiters more control over all aspects of
recruiting process by automating tasks such as candidate screening and assessments,
scheduling interviews and sending resumes to hiring managers.

Time and attendance system: Time and attendance (T&A) systems are one of the most
commonly used HRIS in organizations. These systems are designed to be able to calculate
payroll, track work hours, and calculate leave time for all employees. It also includes a system to
manage absence or leave time for managers and supervisors who need that information for
their own records.

Search and selection: Search and selection (S&S) is an applicant tracking system that allows
recruiters to post job descriptions on the company websites where applicants can apply. The
process of screening job candidates through phone interviews is automated so that the process
can be streamlined. It also allows job seekers to submit resumes online instead of having a
paper application submitted by mail.

Learning management systems: Learning and development takes place in organizations every
day. Companies implement training programs for employees to help them develop strategies for
improving their skills making them more valuable to the business. These systems allow for a
curriculum management of the training process, test results and provide the information
required to do annual reviews.

Compensation management solutions: Many companies use compensation management


solutions as part of their HRIS. They can be used to determine compensation that is based on
employee performance and productivity, as well as market rates, job descriptions and other
factors.

The success of a business model depends on how it aligns with its target customers' value
proposition or perceived value. One of the key components of a successful business model is
the human resource information system. HRIS enable an organization to automate its core
business functions, thereby making it easier for organizations to leverage human capital.

A standard HRIS, in addition to replacing all manual processes, is designed with a specific set
of tools and technology that enables an organization's leadership with a more efficient
management process. These tools and technology integrate talent acquisition, compensation
and benefits, performance management, recruitment and development and much more into one
system that is easily accessible anywhere at any time by anyone with the appropriate access
rights.

Traditionally, HRIS systems were only used by top management and HR professionals, but the
scope has extended over the years with various tools developed to meet the needs of their
clients. Newer versions of HRIS systems have been developed to include tools that allow
mid-level managers and even front-line supervisors to use the system without assistance.
Today's user friendly technology makes it possible for all employees in an organization to view
and access information in an easy way.

The current trend is that companies are shifting from traditional on-premise software solutions to
cloud based solutions as they are perceived as more efficient and cost effective with features
that do not require software upgrades because they are managed by their service provider.
More and more companies are opting for cloud computing because it enables them to use their
own in-house expertise while they outsource the technical knowledge and skills needed to keep
the software up-to-date. Some of the key benefits of cloud HRIS are scalability, flexibility and
low costs.

HRIS are designed to automate processes using a set of integrated tools and technology.
Newer versions also include pre-built templates that enable users design their own applications
based on data retrieved from the central database using custom programming. This assists
organizations in streamlining their management processes while improving their efficiency.

HRIS used primarily to define, manage and control employee acquisition, selection,
development and compensation. HRIS automate the functions involved in human resources
management including talent acquisition, selection, onboarding, training and administration of
personnel records. Often people refer to the process of managing human resources as “HR”
when it is a part of a large company's overall workforce information system (WIFS). For
example: Talent acquisition is part of an HRIS.

Traditionally applicant tracking systems were designed for recruiting or filling technical roles
such as typists or computer programmers. However, today's highly developed talent acquisition
solutions are designed to be used for all levels of employees and include a variety of features
such as:

The candidate pipeline is composed of the set of job listings that are currently being advertised
in the marketplace. The idea behind having a candidate pipeline is to attract people to apply for
these jobs and make it easier for recruiters to select from the best candidates that apply.

Recruiting management systems typically allow recruiters to post job descriptions on the
company website where applicants can apply. These systems also allow job seekers to submit
their resumes online through an application form instead of having a paper application
submitted by mail or faxed.

Review

The HRIS software currently available in the market is not completely sufficient for the current
HR needs of an organization. The physical limitations of these systems stand in between
personnel and verifiable records which restrict them from decreasing bureaucracy and
improving efficiency. Streamlined, advanced HRIS solutions are an absolute need for
organizations to be able to leverage their human capital effectively, efficiently and transparently.

Human resource information systems have been around since computerized databases were
introduced a quarter century ago. These types of database-driven software applications have
integrated some aspects of enterprise resource planning (ERP) solutions with features that
make them highly flexible and easy to use. However, these systems remain in the realm of large
companies with specialized IT departments that are typically more concerned with capabilities
than customer service.

For small to mid sized organizations, upgrading from their current HRIS is far from a simple
process. Even though there are smaller, less expensive software packages that can fulfill the
needs of relatively large companies, it is still hard for them to justify the high rates of equipment
and programming fees. In addition to being costly and difficult to implement, some existing
applications can be awkward to use and offer administrators no real flexibility. The right solution
may be a third-party package like SAP or PeopleSoft; however, they are most likely not as
affordable as they seem on the surface.

Many companies have experienced a repeat of past woes when outsourcing, searching for HR
software is problematic. The most important thing to keep in mind when considering third party
software is that they all have a different price structure and completely different features.
The vendor needs to explain their pricing and feature set in a clear manner, as well as outline
what they expect in return from you and your company. You must also be open to being flexible
if the upfront costs seem too high or if there are areas that you may want to see altered or
added to the preliminary contract.

Every organization is unique, with their own special needs. Vendors should be able to
understand the needs that are unique to your organization and the challenges you face. They
may implement solutions that will not fit in with your company's culture, but will still require you
to make adjustments.

You should also be willing to explore all of your options before making any commitments and be
aware of the amount of time it would take to adapt if there were changes that needed to be
made.

At this point, you may still want a comprehensive package with both software and hardware
components, but it is crucial to consider whether or not you will need ongoing support or
professional consultation throughout this process. This can alleviate some of the initial costs
and ensure that your workforce will have complete access at all times.
For some organizations, making the determination of whether or not to update their current
HRIS is an easy choice. There are a number of ways your company can decide if this is the right
step for them:

A lack of customer service is something that can be remedied with simpler software, or through
outsourcing. It may be hard to find a firm that can provide ongoing support once you've
implemented the initial system, but you should at least try. In most cases, this shouldn't be a
problem as long as your company has made a commitment to having knowledgeable personnel
on hand ready and willing to help with your software needs.

With more advanced technology, it may also be easier to minimize errors in data entry. This will
allow your personnel to be more efficient and eliminate much of the time that would have been
taken up by worrying about data entry.

Over time, as you make changes to your system, you may find that it's more difficult to get new
staff accustomed to the system. Instead of having to manually input information into the system,
they may be able to simply copy in existing data. This is a benefit because it will eliminate all
those tedious hours spent trying to remember what information was previously entered by
whom. In addition, this will increase accuracy considerably.
Even though most organizations utilize large amounts of previous HRIS software and project
management software, small or midsize vendors still exist for this niche market. While they may
not offer everything that a larger vendor can, organizations that do this type of outsourcing will
find themselves with an affordable HRIS solution.

There are several advantages to a small company that offers HRIS solutions. They won't have
to heavily invest in their own infrastructure, and the overhead costs for your employees will be
far lower than it would be if the solution was provided by a larger service provider. Depending on
the size of your organization, you can also keep your IT budget costs lower, which is always
important for organizations with limited resources available to them.

If you have access to proprietary software or business intelligence software if your organization
needs something beyond what is offered by smaller third-party vendors.

In the end, you should expect that your vendor will need to provide a number of services in
order for your company to be successful. You should never find yourself in a position where you
find yourself requiring an upgrade, but don't have access to the necessary resources. This only
increases the likelihood that your failure rate will increase dramatically and that you will end up
with a reputation for not providing customer service.

Methodology

Within the last few years, employers have been challenged to find new ways to increase
productivity and work quality while continuing a high level of engagement among their
employees. They have also been forced to respond to the rapid changes in technology, making
it increasingly difficult for employers to maintain an edge over their competition while still staying
profitable.

Present day companies are constantly trying to streamline their HR administration processes,
recent years have seen the introduction of Human Resource Information Systems (HRIS)
designed to enhance the efficiency of these processes and improve internal communications.
Yet, amidst a constantly changing business environment, it is necessary for organizations to
update their HR technologies in order to remain competitive.

Currently, organizations are transitioning from conventional HRIS solutions in favor of more
advanced ones integrating with mobile applications, social media and cloud services. Many
businesses have made a commitment towards digitizing their infrastructure and operations.
"Human Capital Management Solutions" have become important aspects on this journey
towards technology modernization.
However, "Human Capital Management Solutions" are only effective when employed for the
right reasons and adhered to a proper implementation methodology. To achieve the desired
results, companies must implement a solid and comprehensive methodology. This approach
involves several key steps that include:

As organizations develop their digital infrastructure and operations, HRIS systems will be
increasingly adopted as advanced tools supporting businesses in optimizing HR processes and
workforce management. It is very important to properly select the most appropriate HRIS
solution, but also to integrate it into your company's operation using a well-defined process. The
benefits of doing so will determine your company's ability to remain competitive on an
international scale. Therefore, the importance of HRIS in streamlining HR processes cannot be
understated.

1. Establish a well-defined methodology based on the organization's goals and objectives.

2. Include functional areas such as procurement, facilities, human resources and finance with
their operational counterparts such as maintenance and manufacturing. This will speed up
decision making in the organization.

3. Make sure that not only HR management but also other departments have a stake in the
process, encouraging knowledge sharing and collaboration between departments to attain
maximum productivity levels within your company.

4. Identify areas where no documentation exists (for example when it comes to subcontracting)
or where there is insufficient data (for example when it comes to employee data).

5. Streamline the calculation of payroll benefits by eliminating manual calculations and using
benefit-related data entered in the HRIS system to calculate these benefits.

6. Use the system to generate a variety of reports in order to effectively monitor employee
attendance and performance and thereby reduce the time spent on this task by HR staff
members, who might otherwise have to spend all day filling out time sheets, preparing salary
slips and so forth.

7. Report on the most critical aspects of staff with a view to providing documentation to assist
with due diligence requirements.

8. Live to the organization's objective of being seen as a responsible employer by adopting and
implementing good HR policies and procedures, create transparency and accountability in
management, creating an environment that encourages competition among employees while
ensuring they feel respected, valued and motivated.

9. Adopt an information-sharing culture whereby a team's members are encouraged to


experiment, share knowledge and learn from one another.
10. Maintain the security and privacy of sensitive data through the adoption of up-to-date
technology and policies

11. Technology should be used to optimize processes to fulfill business requirements, but also
have a humanized approach where employees are involved in defining their jobs and in
improving the HRIS system itself.

12. Be proactive, identify opportunities for process improvement, after all continual improvement
is one of the keys to success.

13. Ensure that communication channels are open as well as encouraging conversations
between employees – they can be a valuable source of feedback, ensuring that your company
remains at the forefront of technological changes

Analysis And Interpretation

HRIS, which stands for Human Resource Information System, is a type of computerized
database used to manage the day-to-day operations of human resources. These systems allow
HR departments to better track employee information and calculate compensation for all
employees.

However, in order to efficiently process these systems and meet business objectives,
organisations need a clear understanding of how their HRIS is working and how it can be
improved. This can be achieved through an analysis and interpretation process which includes
interviews with users as well as reviewing existing data sets. The use of this process will help
foster employment relationships between employers, employees, managers and other
stakeholders in the workplace.

Professional analysts and interpreters are trained in the management of complex information
systems and are often experts in the business processes which they analyse. They use different
channels like personal interviews and questionnaires to access qualitative data from workers,
supervisors and managers to be able to produce an effective analysis report. The findings of
these qualitative analyses will provide business intelligence for companies which will help them
achieve greater efficiency in their operations such as HR processes, for example.

A well-executed analysis report is a snapshot taken of the performance of a company's human


resources department, including core functions like recruitment, staffing and training. These
tasks are crucial to any organisation as they have direct effects on staff retention and
productivity levels. Since these processes are time intensive, the companies which use them
find it useful to conduct an analysis before implementing a new policy or procedure.
Interpreting HRIS information effectively is extremely complex, due to the fact that there are
several different types of data sets, each with varying characteristics and purposes. This makes
it important for professionals who offer analysis and interpretation services to familiarise
themselves with the various forms of data in order to be able to make sound recommendations.

Classification: Industry: Geography:


The information we need may come from the following sources:

Topical Information (i.e. Company Annual Reports)


Topical Information (i.e. Company Annual Reports)
Employee Data (i.e. Personnel Lists)
Employee Data (i.e. Personnel Lists)
Customer data (i.e. Company Sales Charts, Paid Returns, etc.)

Thematic Information (i.e. Company Newsletters & Newsletter Lists)
Thematic Information (i.e. Company Newsletters & Newsletter Lists)
Information from non-ICT sources (i.e. Journals, Magazines, Books & Newspapers)

Data from non-ICT sources:

Personal interviews are one of the most frequently used channels in an analysis process. The
main purpose of these interviews is to obtain first hand information about the way staff handle
and manage their daily operations. These interviews usually focus on less formal areas such as
HR processes and organisational development strategies which have a direct effect on
employee satisfaction and motivation levels. Over a period of time, these interviews will provide
an organisation with useful feedback in order to make improvements where they are needed
most.

The interview process is a two-way communication process in which the interviewer and
interviewee are engaged in open dialogue during the entire duration of the interview. This allows
both to share their thoughts and views freely and openly, which will lead to a more effective
analysis report.

In order to gain full insight into how HR processes are working in an organisation, it is necessary
for analysts to engage in a variety of qualitative interviews with different stakeholders depending
on their areas of expertise. Information gathered through these interviews can be in the form of
personal anecdotes, useful data and relevant examples which can be used to build a solid
foundation for any future recommendations.

As previously mentioned, there are many different types of data sets which can be identified by
survey respondents. This can be a problem when trying to interpret the information accurately
as it is difficult to determine which one to use, depending on the nature of each type. However,
this should not necessarily deter companies from conducting interviews with their staff as these
feedback sessions are crucial to receiving an accurate report.

A number of techniques can be employed in order to gain a wider understanding from


interviewees and understanding their perceptions about HRIS systems and their performance.
Follow-up interviews, secondary interviews and focus group discussions are some of the most
effective tools used by analysts to gain a thorough insight into how HR systems work.

One important thing to keep in mind when conducting an interview is not to bombard
participants with too many questions at once or ask tricky questions which may confuse
interviewees. In order to ensure the best possible results from this process, it is advisable that
companies choose a few key areas they would like to focus on and tailor their questions
accordingly. This will help nurture a more natural environment in which employees feel
comfortable sharing their opinions freely.

Another important thing to keep in mind when conducting an interview is to clarify your objective
as early as possible. This will help the interviewee understand the reasons behind this process
and also how it can help them better. Clarity in objective will also assist the interviewer in
ensuring that all questions are relevant, which will in turn increase the chances of obtaining
useful information.

Focus group discussion is another highly effective tool that is used by professional analysts to
obtain information about a wide range of topics related to HRIS systems and their performance.
This process involves several people from different areas of expertise and allows them to work
together as a team to produce an efficient analysis report. This can prove to be more efficient
than conducting interviews separately, as the findings from a focus group discussion are usually
more comprehensive.

The main purpose of these meetings is to gather data from employees and non-employees on a
range of HR processes and systems. This allows analysts to obtain both first hand information,
as well as the perspective of those who do not currently have any connection with the
organisation in question. These meetings provide invaluable insight into how organisations
expect their employees to perform their tasks and in turn what improvements they need.

A tool which is used by many companies in order to offer better service, enhanced knowledge
and a higher level of responsiveness is the use of PowerPoint presentations. Presentations can
be used to reveal significant facts to attendees in a relatively short period of time and is a great
tool for presenting information in an organised, concise and informative way.

The main purpose of using PowerPoint presentations is to provide clients with an overview of
the main elements which they will be dealing with during the course of their research. This will
allow companies to organise information in a way which best benefits clients, making it easier
for these people to understand and make sense of trends which are being revealed.
There are many different ways that PowerPoint presentations can be used during an analysis
process. While these may differ depending on their specific requirements, they all follow a very
similar format.

Use of HRIS or Human Resource Information Systems in Streamlining HR Processes and
Enhancing Employee Experience

Human Resource Information System (HRIS), is one of the widely used computer software
products in the field of human resource. "Enterprises use HRIS to calculate payroll, manage
employee benefits, manage personnel records and keep track of employee training and
achievements."

One major benefit that enterprises are expected to achieve with the use of HRIS is streamlining
their Human Resource processes. With such a huge demand for this product as it is an
essential tool, companies have realized its importance by adopting these systems that power
new ways to improve their businesses’ operations. One of the biggest advantages of HRIS is its
potential to revolutionize the Human Resource process for the benefit of all employees. As it
benefits both employer and employee, it can be used in any industry and within any
organization level.

In order to reduce costs and make use of more efficient structures within their industries, many
companies have turned to HRIS for greater benefits. As a result, employers are gaining access
to detailed information about their workforce in order to conduct effective interviews, manage
payrolls more efficiently and improve other labor processes For example: "HRM software such
as IBM’s Empowerment allows employers to access a database that consolidates employment,
pay, benefits and other data. This allows HR chiefs to quickly allocate HR budgets and make
flexible shifts of HR resources as business needs change."

For the benefit of employee benefits management, employers can retrieve payroll information
that enables them to compute their employees’ incomes through the software. Furthermore, with
these systems, they are also able to track time and attendance, manage leaves and other
benefits. Other than these, it can also be used in handling employee attendance, performance
management and training records. As an integral part of Human Resource Management (HRM)
functions, it is essential for organizations to use this product in order to utilize its full potentials.

With the help of HRIS, companies can make their Human Resources processes more efficient
and effective by enabling them to access information that can be used for the purpose of
creating a database that consolidates payroll, benefits and other HR data. Through such
information, they are able to decide on the best possible ways in which they can allocate their
budget. As a result, they will be able to make more flexible schedules that maximize productivity
within a given time.
Conclusion and Recommendation

Of course, many factors go into how a company operates, as well as how its HR processes are
run. Basically, it boils down to the amount of time an HR specialist or consultant will dedicate to
"streamlining" and "enhancing" human resource processes. One of the most important ways
that HR can do this is by introducing an Integrated Human Resource Information System
(IHRIS). Those interested in learning more about IHRIS should read on below:

A recent study found that a typical HR process took an average of 72 hours to complete If these
numbers seem daunting or impossible for your company to reach, you'll want to find out about
"streamlining" and "enhancing employee experience". If your company is ready to begin
"streamlining" and "enhancing employee experience", read on.

For the last few years, companies have incorporated computer technology into their HR
processes. However, most of this technology is still sitting within separate systems and
applications. IHRIS combines different HR functions into one integrated system that can be
used by employees and managers alike. Typically, these systems are very expensive. Some
examples include

The cost for an IHRIS can range from $1 million to $3 million dollars, depending on the
company's level of need. A smaller or less-established company might be able to implement a
trial version of an IHRIS for free or at a lesser price than what the full system costs. These
systems are typically run on an intranet and can be accessed by a company's employees and
managers.

Human resource information systems are actually quite easy to use. In fact, most companies will
find that they can be used almost immediately after implementation. One of the most important
reasons for implementing an IHRIS is highly-reduced costs for administrative processes within
your human resource department. This is because IHRIS have fewer functions than other HR
software applications, but these functions are used more efficiently. Also, the system is
streamlined, so tasks within the system can be completed in one place. This can save a
company time and money.

The main beneficiaries of an IHRIS are typically employees and managers. Managers tend to
spend a lot of time on administrative tasks within their department, such as payroll and
employee scheduling. However, these tasks can be difficult to do without a computer program or
application to help with doing them quickly and efficiently. HR departments are significantly less
busy than they used to be because of IHRIS; this is a huge benefit for all involved in HR
processes.

Most HR staff members will agree that there was a time when their department's HR office was
incredibly busy and had a lot to do. However, they would find themselves spending the majority
of their time in creating and maintaining spreadsheets and documents. Other HR staff members
would often wonder why they were told to do certain tasks; they felt as if it wasn't a real job.
Many employees would also be frustrated because they were working more than 40 hours per
week and not receiving paid overtime. This often led to a sense of quitting or leaving the
company because many employees either wanted a full-time position or enough hours to
support themselves in their careers.

The implementation of an IHRIS can help streamline and enhance the HR processes in a
company. As you can see from above, employees will benefit from this most of all.
With many employees who work long hours and have to deal with the stress of being
short-staffed, IHRIS can provide much-needed relief and support. Employees will enjoy having
one place to go for all their HR needs, as well as having less paperwork to fill out, less time
fumbling through documents, and better communication with other HR staff members.

IHRIS can be a huge benefit for employees at many levels within your company. However, it is
important to note that an IHRIS is not meant to keep employees from taking proper breaks or
having other responsibilities outside of the HR department. Therefore, HR professionals should
make sure that employees take breaks from their workstation at a regular time every day.
Employees are also encouraged to seek out other forms of employee benefits like health care
and dental coverage if they need them.

While IHRIS can streamline and enhance HR processes, it can also have some negative effects
on a company's employees. As you can see from the above comments on break times during
the working day and other administrative tasks, an IHRIS doesn't make these things easier. This
can lead to employee burnout and frustration. It is important for HR specialists to make sure that
the IHRIS is communicating with the employees in the company.

Another thing that HR managers should keep in mind is whether or not an IHRIS will be used
across all departments within a company. If this isn't something that your company wants to do,
then you should make sure to look for another way to "enhance employee experience".
Furthermore, there are certain times when companies don't want to replace their HR software
applications with an IHRIS right away. For example, some of these software applications still
work better than others when it comes to payroll and employee scheduling needs.
