Core HR - Where Everything Begins

Human resource management (HR) is an essential, complex and highly information-intensive function in all businesses. It is also tightly regulated by government agencies. Therefore, information technology is a fundamental tool in the effective management of human resources. A human resources management system uses the power of information technology to capture, store, analyze and report on all aspects of the most important resource of an organization: people. An HRMS is also called a human resources information system, a Human Capital Management System and Human Resources Information Technology (HRIT).

With the help of information technology, an HR software can be a great asset to your company. There are several leave management software that can help the HR department to keep a well-tracked record for each and every employee in the company.

Some of the benefits of using HR Software are listed here:

Automate and improve basic processes
These systems automate the crucial human resource management functions like employee information, payroll, benefits and decision support. An HRMS integrates a set of databases related to functional processing units, such as hiring management, time and salaries, benefits and pensions, leave management, employee management, and learning. For example, employee work time is introduced into the system and used to pay workers, calculate and accumulate benefits, pay taxes, measure productivity and capture the cost of operating human resources.

By implementing an HRMS, companies examine their existing processes and improve them to make the best use of the information system. An HRMS, along with streamlined workflow processes enhance organizational performance, reduce costs and allow human resources personnel to focus on employee management issues and project work.

Support for decision making and strategic planning
An HRMS simplifies the activities supporting management decisions and reporting since the data stored in the system can be used in many ways. Standard HR reports, such as hours worked, terminations and payroll summaries can be used to manage the business and plan for the future. Also, users can develop special HRMS reports to identify trends and measure operational efficiency. This helps in the management of decision making and strategic planning.

Compliance support
Human Resource Management Systems generate the reports required by government and state agencies. These reports can be transmitted electronically to the appropriate agencies, saving time and money. For example, a company must submit to the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission EEO-1 Employer Detail and the Synthesis Report and the Department of Occupational Diseases and Report of injured persons on a regular basis.

An HRMS can help a company manage a union agreement by tracking years of service for promotions, salary increases, and layoffs. It also helps assess the performance, problems of business, monitor employees and complaints.

Link to other information systems
An HR software allows data exchange and integration with other essential business systems, such as accounting, finance and supply chain management. It also supports data transfer with third-party systems, such as health insurance companies and retirement fund managers to share employee information. These links streamline workflow and reduce operating costs.

In short, an HR software helps in streamlining all the processes immensely. It ensures that all the records of the employees are readily available and reports can be generated without wasting any time or many. The leave management software also provides that all the employees have a fair idea of the number of leaves that can be granted to them during one financial year. Implementing such system in your company can enhance your company’s productivity and efficiency immensely.
