The adoption of various technologies is revolutionizing the way human resource departments
operate, transforming how they connect with employees, manage data, and analyze information.
When organizations adopt the right technologies, human resource practices become highly efficient,
leading to numerous benefits (Singh et al., 2017). However, it is crucial to understand the purpose
and ensure proper implementation, as technology adoption without proper consideration can have
detrimental effects on how human resources are managed. Therefore, it is essential to adopt
technology efficiently, maximizing benefits while minimizing challenges and problems.
One of the key advantages of incorporating technology in human resource practices is its
ability to streamline processes and eliminate redundant tasks, allowing HR executives to focus on
more complex HR issues (Gikopoulos, 2019). These technologies facilitate the consolidation and
analysis of data, enabling HR professionals to assess employee performance more effectively.
Digitalization and process automation, which form the foundation of these technologies, will
play a crucial role in the future workplace. Organizations are encouraged to leverage a combination of
technologies such as data mining, data analytics, machine learning, automation, robotics, and artificial
intelligence. These technologies have already begun to transform the workplace at an unprecedented
pace, leading to a shift in the role of HR from being primarily operational to becoming more strategic
(Holland & Bardoel, 2016). HR executives will also have the additional responsibility of guiding
corporations through rapidly changing workplace dynamics.
In conclusion, the efficient adoption of technology in human resource practices has the
potential to revolutionize the way organizations manage their workforce. By embracing the right
technologies, HR departments can streamline processes, analyze data effectively, and contribute
strategically to the organization's success. However, careful planning, proper implementation, and
addressing potential challenges are essential for harnessing the full potential of technology in HR
practices.
