Other Systems
Data Collection: Gathering and compiling employee data, such as personal information
(name, address, contact details), employment details (start date, position, department),
educational qualifications, certifications, and emergency contacts.
Data Storage and Organization: Storing employee information in a secure and centralized
database or HR information system (HRIS). This ensures easy access, efficient retrieval, and
proper organization of employee data.
Data Maintenance and Updates: Regularly updating and maintaining employee records to
reflect changes in personal information, job titles, promotions, transfers, and other relevant
details. This ensures the accuracy and currency of the employee database.
Confidentiality and Data Security: Implementing measures to ensure the confidentiality and
security of employee information. This includes restricting access to authorized personnel,
using secure servers or cloud-based systems, and adhering to data protection and privacy
regulations.
Reporting and Analytics: Extracting and analyzing employee data to generate reports and
insights. This can help HR professionals make informed decisions regarding workforce
planning, performance management, training needs, and other HR initiatives.
Key Features: The computerized HR system includes various modules and features such as
employee records, attendance tracking, payroll processing, training management, and
evaluations/rating system based on punctuality, cleanliness, or quality services.
Benefits and Compensation Management: The system handles employee benefits
administration, such as insurance plans, leave management, and compensation calculations.
Benefits and Compensation Management refers to the strategic planning, administration, and
oversight of employee benefits and compensation programs within an organization. It
involves designing and implementing comprehensive benefits packages and compensation
structures that attract, retain, and motivate employees while aligning with the organization's
goals and budget (Chaudhary, 2020).
Benefits Administration: This involves managing employee benefits programs such as health
insurance, retirement plans, vacation and leave policies, disability coverage, wellness
programs, and other perks. It includes selecting appropriate benefit providers, negotiating
contracts, educating employees about available benefits, and handling enrollment and claims
processes (Chaudhary, 2020).
Total Rewards: Developing a comprehensive total rewards strategy that encompasses both
monetary and non-monetary rewards. This includes recognition programs, career
development opportunities, flexible work arrangements, and work-life balance initiatives.
Compliance with Regulations: Ensuring compliance with employment laws and regulations
related to compensation and benefits. This includes adhering to minimum wage laws,
overtime regulations, equal pay laws, and other relevant legal requirements.
Goal Setting: Performance Management begins with establishing performance goals and
objectives that are specific, measurable, attainable, relevant, and time-bound (SMART goals).
These goals should align with the overall strategic objectives of the organization.
Employee Self-Service Portal: Employees can access the system through a self-service
portal, enabling them to view and update personal information, submit leave requests, access
pay stubs, and participate in training programs.
Reporting and Analytics: The system provides reporting and analytics capabilities, allowing
HR to generate insights on various metrics, such as employee turnover, training effectiveness,
and performance trends. HR reporting and analytics can help organizations understand their
workforce composition, including demographics, skills, and experience levels. This
information aids in strategic workforce planning, identifying talent gaps, succession planning,
and making informed decisions regarding recruitment, training, and development (Stone, et
al., 2020).
Surveys and feedback data can be gathered and analyzed to assess employee engagement and
satisfaction levels. HR can use analytics to identify factors influencing engagement, measure
the impact of engagement initiatives, and make evidence-based decisions to improve
employee experience and retention. Reporting and analytics help HR evaluate the
effectiveness of training and development programs (Stone, et al., 2020). By analyzing
training completion rates, skills development, and performance improvements, HR can
identify skill gaps, assess training ROI, and refine learning initiatives to align with business
needs.
Analytics can help HR track and analyze absence and leave patterns, such as sick leave,
vacation time, and other time-off requests. This data assists in managing workforce capacity,
identifying trends, managing leave policies, and addressing excessive absenteeism (Collins,
2021). HR analytics supports compensation and benefits management by providing insights
into salary benchmarks, pay equity, benefit utilization, and total rewards effectiveness (Stone,
et al., 2020). This information helps HR make informed decisions regarding compensation
structures, incentive programs, and benefit offerings.
Reporting and analytics assist HR in monitoring compliance with labor laws, regulatory
requirements, and internal policies. By analyzing data related to workforce demographics,
employee records, and compliance incidents, HR can identify potential risks, implement
proactive measures, and ensure adherence to legal and ethical standards (Collins, 2021). HR
reporting often involves developing dashboards and visualizations that present key HR
metrics and indicators. These dashboards provide HR professionals and organizational
leaders with real-time insights into workforce trends, turnover rates, diversity metrics,
recruitment progress, and other HR-related data.
Integration with Other Systems: The computerized HR system can be integrated with other
systems, such as time and attendance systems or financial systems, to ensure seamless data
flow and eliminate manual data entry.
Data Security and Privacy: The system incorporates robust security measures to protect
sensitive employee data and ensure compliance with privacy regulations. Data security refers
to the protection of data from unauthorized access, use, disclosure, disruption, modification,
or destruction. It involves implementing measures to prevent data breaches, hacking, and
other malicious activities (Chaudhary, 2020). Data security measures may include encryption,
access controls, firewalls, secure storage, and regular system updates.
Data privacy focuses on individuals' rights to control their personal information, including
how it is collected, used, stored, and shared. Privacy regulations, such as the General Data
Protection Regulation (GDPR) in the European Union, aim to safeguard individuals' privacy
rights by imposing obligations on organizations that handle personal data (Stone, et al.,
2020). Privacy practices involve obtaining consent for data collection, providing transparency
about data usage, and enabling individuals to exercise their rights regarding their personal
data.
By implementing a computerized HR system, the department can automate manual processes,
reduce paperwork, enhance data accuracy, improve communication, and enable HR
professionals to focus on strategic initiatives rather than administrative tasks.
