HR's digital push is two-fold. On the one hand, it has the challenge of transforming its operations to ensure they are innovative and adaptive; on the other, HR processes need to be modified to be more automated and data-driven. Such changes will only be successful if they are supported by colleagues at all levels of an organisation, right up to the C-suite.
Using Employee Self Service (ESS) portals, staff can now manage many of their own HR processes such as applying for leave, managing expense claims and changing personal details such as banking and next-of-kin information,. This not only frees up HR professionals' time, but allows it to be employed in areas that require more strategic thinking and human intervention. In addition, workflow processes are built into the system and provide for the scheduling and notification of tasks, security access, and the logging and recording of workflow processes.
According to Deloitte's 2018 HR Technology Disruptions report, only 39 per cent of large companies and 49 per cent of mid-sized companies are on the cloud, although that number is expected to rise in the coming years. While cloud-based solutions are not new, there has been an increase in their usage by HR departments, especially in the recruitment process. If your HR department is not using cloud-based solutions, now is the time to make the switch to ensure that your company's information is centralised, efficiently stored and easily retrievable. With the implementation of cloud-based technology, it is no surprise that the requirement for data security has been amplified. Through the increased use of software encryption and cybersecurity measures, employees can be reassured of the protection of their sensitive data on the cloud.
AI continues to reinvent traditional HR functions through improvements in app-based capabilities, auto-generated information and machine learning. Organisations need to reconsider their structure in order to maximise the value of both employees and machines.
The growing shift towards the cloud has also resulted in an increased need for smart device applications to support the capabilities. Our mobile devices are used for almost everything and now HR managers are finding new ways for applications to support the same capabilities that a desktop does. In line with these cloud-based solutions, the best payroll software should be able to access all information on the go. Payroll management solutions have the advantage of being regularly upgraded, straightforward and easily accessible from any smart device.
