2.1 Introduction to HR Analytics
HR analytics (also known as people analytics) is the collection and application of talent data to
improve critical talent and business outcomes. HR analytics leaders enable HR leaders to
develop data-driven insights to inform talent decisions, improve workforce processes and
promote positive employee experience.

HR analytics is the process of collecting and analyzing Human Resource (HR) data in order to
improve an organization’s workforce performance. The process can also be referred to as talent
analytics, people analytics, or even workforce analytics. This method of data analysis takes data
that is routinely collected by HR and correlates it to HR and organizational objectives. Doing so
provides measured evidence of how HR initiatives are contributing to the organization’s goals
and strategies.

For example, if a software engineering firm has high employee turnover, the company is not
operating at a fully productive level. It takes time and investment to bring employees up to a
fully productive level.HR analytics provides data-backed insight on what is working well and
what is not so that organizations can make improvements and plan more effectively for the
future.

As in the example above, knowing the cause of the firm’s high turnover can provide valuable
insight into how it might be reduced. By reducing the turnover, the company can increase its
revenue and productivity.

2.2 Objectives of HR Analytics

1. Achieve Organizational Goals

The HRM objectives are to fulfill organizational goals by utilizing human resources to achieve
business requirements and standards. It is very important for an effective HRM to accomplish the
organizational goals to inflate the profitability of an organization.

Page 6 of 77
Organizational objectives include workforce handling, staff requirements like hiring, onboarding,
payroll management, social engagement, and more. To succeed at the organizational objectives,
HR requires efficient planning and execution.

Without a set parameter for goals, mission, and resources, HRM is incomplete. After you know
your resources and planning at the place, achieving HRM objectives gets streamlined. Some
more objectives are explained further.

2. Work Culture

When it comes to handling HRM effectively, employee and work environment are the prior
factors. Work culture plays an important role in defining HRM and business performance.

An HR manager needs to be active while calling for strategies to foster better work culture.
Automated activities like leave approvals, reimbursement request acknowledgement, etc. can
help you.

In addition, Quick operations and empowerment to employees help in creating positive vibes at
the workplace. Developing and maintaining healthy and transparent relations among team
members and teams contribute to building a good example of work culture.

Adopting the right solutions like an employee management system can solve more than half of
your job. Small steps like short and sound onboarding processes can help build a good image of
the workplace.

3. Team Integration

One of the prime roles and objectives of HRM is to make sure the team coordinates efficiently.
Easy communication is the need for teams in an enterprise. An HR here must ensure a tool that
assists in making the integration easier and smooth.

The proper connection between individuals is a must to ensure productivity. To make human
capital management successful, you need to search for better integration portals to make data
availability easier for people.

Functional objectives like team integration are to produce streamlined operations and tasks. The
right tool like the self-service portal can bring employees closer to HR folks.

Page 7 of 77
4. Training and Development

Workforce being effective and performing are two important and basic elements to work upon
for achieving your basic objectives at an organization.

With proper training and providing future opportunities, employees feel safe and organized.
Effective employment is highly dependent upon training practices. Providing opportunities to
employees is one of the great step to ensure workforce performance management.

There might be difficulties such as planning, scheduling training sessions, and evaluation of each
on-boards.

To lessen the pain, solutions like training management software can help you with auto-
reminders, easy scheduler, reporting, and tracking capability. The HR manager can ensure
effective training practices at the firm.

5. Employee Motivation

The prime objective of the HR team is to keep things on the right path. Keep distractions and
negative vibes away.

For this, the employees need to be attended to and kept motivated throughout. But the question
here is:

6. Workforce Empowerment

Talking about employee motivation, nothing can work better than empowering them.
Empowering them with tools like ESS portal can help save HR efforts too.

With the portal, employees can apply for approvals and track them through their mobile phones.
Be it leave requests, generating Payment slip, checking PF accounts, remaining leaves, upcoming
holidays, manager details, or anything, HR intervention is least required.

Employees no more need to knock on HR’s desk for small queries as all the minute details would
be made available on the ESS portal. The workforce plays a pivotal role in an organization as the
functioning of the business depends on the skills of the employees.

When the objective of HRM would align with individual interests it inflates the encouragement
of employees to heights. What else could empower workforce would take? How would you
Page 8 of 77
ensure the right workforce engagement? Effective HRM measures can definitely help. Look for
easy employee management tips.

7. Retention

Providing leadership qualities and opportunities, a healthy working area, and employee
retention are some prime objectives and deliverables of the HR managers. Keeping employees
retained and motivated needs to be a top priority for HRM.

To ensure the retention of employees, the HR department should optimize the functional
objectives of the company in accordance to the interest of company as well as its workforce to
ensure the engagement of staff in achieving the company’s goals.

Other than employee hiring, onboarding, and training cycle, keeping the employees retained for
long is the biggest challenge AKA the objective of the HR people. It often occurs that employees
leave the organization within 2 months of onboarding. It can be due to ineffective training
management or a rough hiring process.

8. Data and Compliance

Functional and organizational objectives also include managing company/ employee data and
managing compliance. Managing payroll compliances and keeping the company out of any
penalties or fines is a huge challenge for the Human resource management (HRM) teams and
managers.

Even a small error or miscalculation can owe you huge penalties and even may lose respect.
When committing to tasks like employment and payroll, you need to be careful about laws and
regulations. The objective here is to keep any unwanted claims at bay for smooth functioning.

Automated software is the main element in human resource management and objectives
attaining. Like the HRMS system can help you keep errors at the side and leave no window for
owing any penalty from IRS.

It is the responsibility of HR to follow IRS guidelines and standards for effective employment at
the company. Stay assured of all the legalities.

2.3 Types of HR Analytics
HR analytics helps HR professionals and their organizations to improve decision-making
through data. It also offers HR practitioners the ability to contribute strategically by providing
meaningful insights and contributing more effectively to the business’s bottom line.

There are 4 types of HR analytics methods that HR professionals can use, namely, descriptive,
diagnostic, predictive, and prescriptive analytics. This article will discuss each of these types and
their application in HR.

 Descriptive analytics
 Diagnostic analytics
 Predictive analytics
 Prescriptive analytics
1. Descriptive analytics
The first type of HR analytics on the list is descriptive analytics. This is the most basic type that
analyzes data patterns to gain insight into the past.

It is known as decision analytics, and uses statistical analysis techniques to explain or summarize
a particular set of historical, raw data. It focuses on past data to account for what happened but
doesn’t make predictions for the future.

2. Diagnostic analytics
Diagnostic analytics takes descriptive analytics to the next level by providing an explanation for
what has been revealed. It aims to determine the underlying reasons for what the data exposes.

Although it is based on the same historical data as descriptive analytics, there is a key difference.
Diagnostic analytics goes into the next step of summarizing what happened in understandable
terms. It digs for the “why” behind the data’s trends, correlations, and anomalies.

3. Predictive analytics

Estimates what might happen in the future; it forecasts future outcomes. The process involves
categorizing past and present data to isolate patterns, correlations, and irregularities followed by
estimating a model to predict what will occur in the future. Then the model’s accuracy is
evaluated by applying it to new data.

4. Prescriptive analytics

Page 10 of 77
Prescriptive analytics is the final and most complex stage of the analytics journey that transfers
predictive analytics into ideas for what to do next.

A general prescriptive analytics definition would be the targeted recommendation for decision
options and actions based on the findings of predictive analytics. It offers options for where and
how to act to achieve success.

Prescriptive analytics relies on big data and uses an assortment of technical tools, including:

 Machine learning
 Algorithms
 Artificial intelligence
 Pattern recognition
2.4 Advantages of HR Analytics
1. Practicing evidence-based HR

Traditionally, HR management was always based on trends, biases, or temporary fixes. There
will generally be inconsistencies between what HR professionals believe to be suitable and
effective and what data proves to be effective. Evidence-based HR centers on making decisions
supported by evidence from internal data, research findings and studies, expert judgment, real-
life experience, values, and concerns. This approach enables HR professionals to base HR
decisions on facts and evidence rather than relying solely on a gut feeling.

2. Improving recruitment and talent acquisition


You gain valuable insights into your hiring process by tracking data pertaining to key
recruitment metrics such as cost per hire, application completion rates, quality of hire, quality of
source, and candidate experience. This allows you to see what’s working, what needs
improvement, and make changes accordingly, which will positively impact the business.

3. Managing employee performance and productivity


With HR analytics and key performance indicators (KPIs), you can assess the ROI of all
employees. It helps you identify your top performers (and use these as a benchmark when
making new hires) and those who are struggling (and offer them support). A better understanding
of motivation, productivity, and efficiency can help all employees improve their performance
and contribute to the bottom line.

Page 11 of 77
4. Helping build equitable compensation and benefits packages
Analyzing compensation data allows you to spot any pay disparities and fix them to ensure
you’re achieving internal and external pay equity. It can also help you determine which benefits
are most valued by your employees. Then, you can adjust your compensation and benefits
packages accordingly. Plus, you can decide if an additional bonus percentage leads to improved
retention or performance or whether it makes no noticeable difference. That can ultimately save
you money.

5. Easily conducting skills gap analyses


The richness and depth of HR analytics software mean it can use algorithms to identify skills and
knowledge gaps within your current teams. Your team’s existing skills can be plotted on a grid
against the skills you need. That can help you identify weak spots and propose a plan to bridge
these. Gaps like these often harm employee engagement, morale, and turnover rates if left
unresolved.

6. Boosting learning and development, upskilling and reskilling


Data can show you where your employees need upskilling or reskilling, if they’re utilizing
training opportunities, and if the training is relevant for them. This helps you create
relevant learning and development programs that help upskill and reskill your employees, boost
performance, achieve organizational goals, and save time and money.

7. Preventing turnover
Another of the benefits of HR analytics is that they can help you understand:

 which employees are leaving and why,


 your retention rate,
 which departments have a higher than average turnover,
 early attrition rates for new hires,
 and which employees are most likely to leave in the future.

These data enables organizations to prevent losses before they happen, reduce their turnover rate
by understanding the root cause, and then design targeted strategies to improve retention.

8. Improving candidate and employee experience

Page 12 of 77
A study found that 56% of applicants encounter some form of a technical issue during the job
application process. These can lead to abandoned applications and missing out on top talent.
Providing an engaging and flawless recruitment and onboarding process where candidates have a
positive experience leads to improved retention, a boost to your employer brand, and future
talent acquisition.

HR analytics can help you analyze the candidate experience during the recruitment process and
your employees’ experience at work day-to-day. For example, how strong their sense of
belonging is, where they perform best, how they feel about every aspect of their job, and how
they can continue to grow in their role and the organization. This information can help you
improve the daily experience of your employees and create a better working environment and
company culture.

9. Identifying inefficiencies
HR analytics will help HR professionals look outward into business processes and operations,
but also internally to shine a spotlight on areas that can be improved within HR itself. For
example, systems that don’t communicate well, a reliance on manual paper-processes where
digital software could save time and money.

Through data, HR can identify processes that aren’t helping the business achieve desired results
or are inefficient and redesign these. More efficient HR processes can lead to a significant boost
in the overall vitality of an organization.

2.5 Disadvantages of HR Analytics


1. Scattered data
The explosion in people data promised you confident decision-making, but the reality turned out
to be much more overwhelming than you expected. Now your data is in separate, siloed systems
and you have no easy way to stitch it together.

2 .Mismatched business objectives


When HR leaders don't collaborate closely with their colleagues, including the people on the
ground and in senior leadership, they can't prioritize and align HR programs with urgent business
objectives.

Page 13 of 77
3 .Poor data quality
Your people data is inaccurate, incomplete, duplicative or outdated and, therefore, not ready for
quality analyses. Anyone who uses these insights is making decisions based on bad information.

4 Lack of context
Even if you take full advantage of your internal data, you may not have the whole story. You
lack the external context that tells you how your organization compares to its peers.

5 Inadequate access
The status quo has created access restrictions and poor cross-team collaboration. As a result, key
leaders and decision-makers don’t have a seamless flow of people insights to help them steer
strategic improvements for your organization.

6 Superficial predictions
Your initiatives aren’t impactful because they’re based on guesses that lack nuance and depth. In
other words, you’re dealing with descriptive, not predictive, analytics.

7 No follow through
Your analytics are built on the wrong foundations, leaving you without any actionable data. Or,
you have the right insights, but your key people can’t be convinced to act.

2.9 Process of HR Analytics
4-Step HR Analytics Process

Page 18 of 77
The HR analytics process comprises four primary steps that are performed one after the other.
These steps form the bedrock of measuring the impact of HR initiatives while staying aligned
with the metrics.

Let us get a detailed understanding of the processes below.

Step 1: Data Collection

Collecting and categorizing high-quality data is HR analytics's first and most vital step.
Basically, there are two categories of data required for the process. They are as follows:

Internal Data: Employee Tenure, Employee Training Records, Data on high and low performers,
Retention, Engagement, Turnover, Salary and Promotion History, Absenteeism.

External Data: Organization-wide financial data, Passive data from employees right from the
recruitment stage, Core offerings of the organization, and Historical data.

Step 2: Monitoring the Data and Comparing it with Past Performance

The second step is all about continuous assessment and comparison of the obtained data. At this
step, the HR metrics are calculated to measure the effectiveness of the HR initiatives.

The HR metrics considered for the HR Analytics process are showcased below.

Step 3: Analysis

After having assessed, compared, and calculated the HR metrics in the previous step, they can be
analyzed further to identify the impact of HR initiatives and activities on the workforce.

Step 4: Utilize the Obtained Data to Bring in Remedial Measures

Once the HR metrics have undergone the analysis step, the analyzed data is further utilized to
make informed decisions. The insights drawn from the analysis help address the issues that
hamper the organizational processes and likewise implement remedial measures and
improvements in the HR metrics.

2.10 Main functions of HR Analytics


The main function of HR analytics is to collect, analyze, and report on HR data to improve
people and business outcomes. HR analytics can be used to:

4.1 Introduction to Research Topic
The purpose of study was to examine the opportunities and challenges using HR Analytics in
business. Research methodology is a way to systematically achieving objectives of the study.
There are various steps involved in the process of achieving objectives. The chapter describes the
research design and methods used in this study.it covers the research design, data collection
instruments such as primary data or secondary data quantitative methods, pilot study, reliability
test for data collection instrument and descriptive statistics based on the pilot study.

A research cannot be conducted abruptly. Researcher has to proceed systematically in the


already planned direction with the help of a number of steps in sequence. To make the research
systemized the researcher has to adopt certain methods. The methods adopted by the researcher
for completing the project are called Research Methodology.

4.2 Problem Statement/ Hypothesis
Human Resource Analytics is becoming more vital as technology is introduced to many areas of
company. Organizations that embrace HR analytics will have an easier time building a pipeline
of top people and keeping them around. However, the opposite is true: the company's
competitive edge would suffer if HR Analytics is rejected. Similarly, although HR Analytics is
undoubtedly important for businesses today, surprisingly few HR departments really use the
tools available to them. Human resources experts have been and still are criticized in the
literature for their alleged inability to grasp basic concepts of business and finance. One of the
obstacles to implementing these HR advances seems to be a lack of familiarity with or comfort
with numerical data

scientific method which involves observing and describing the behavior of subject without
