What is Human Resource Information System?
According to Susan M. Heatfield (2011), the Human Resource Information System (HRIS) is a software or online solution for the data entry, data tracking, and data information needs of the Human Resources, payroll, management, and accounting functions within a business. In my opinion, this system is been used by an organization to allow the HR function to become more efficient and to provide better information for decision making.
Do we need HRIS system in an organization??? With the increasing impact of globalization, it has also given an implication to HR. The HR must set up strategies with the help of information systems to ensure hat the desired goals and objectives are met on the right time.
According to Overman (1992) he concluded that the advantages of HRIS are faster information processing, greater information accuracy, improved planning and program development, and enhanced employee communications. In my opinion, by using HRIS it will help the organization process become smoother and efficient .Any activities will turn out less or error free.
Through HRIS we can track the employee information in more easiest way that helps to find out whether the employee is performing at its full potential or there is a need in any improvement towards the overall performance of the employee .Besides HRIS also will help in reduces time and cost consuming activities that will lead to a more efficient HR department. It shows that HRIS is very important and a must for an organization to become productive and conducive in term of efficiency and cost.
