What are HR tools? HR tools are technologies that help organizations complete Human Resource activities. These tools can vary in specificities, some handling unique and strategic HR capabilities such as employee onboarding and performance management.
What does Human Resources do? HR is the heart of an organization. Think about it, the Human Resources department manages employee affairs, and your employees are your greatest assets. More specifically, HR oversees a multitude of employee-related functions. I have summarized 7 main HR-specific functions below: Employee recruitment Employee onboarding and development ⛵ Organizational culture, employee engagement, communication, and labor relations Managerial relations Health and safety regulation ĕ Personal employee support Payroll and compensation đ Later in this article, you’ll find relevant HR tools supporting each, so keep reading. The first HR-like division came about in the 1900s, named the Personnel Management Department. Set up by John Henry Patterson, Personnel Management dealt with employee grievances, discharge, safety, and the relay of information to supervisors.
Why is HR important? “To win in the marketplace, you must first win in the workplace.” – Doug Conant HR has evolved over the years, with added complexity and functions. Technological advancement and globalization have steepened competition for top talent. Once more, new employment standards and regulations continue to emerge. It’s therefore critical that 2/37
adequate investments are made for organizations to remain both competitive and compliant. HR-related investments vary from industry to industry. For instance, in the oil and gas sector, HR expenditures represent 0.75% of total revenue. Whereas in the Commercial and Professional services industry, costs mount up to 3.61% of total revenue. These costs are, however, an insignificant pin-prick relative to the benefits HR activities bring to an organization. Allocating enough resources and funding will bring benefits, such as: Higher employee productivity: When employees are appreciated and supported, research shows they’re more productive at work. A strong organizational culture that is maintained: Your HR department guarantees employees are well suited to the company’s culture. You’ll want to make sure this culture is a healthy one to retain employees, establish a good reputation, and increase work quality. Strengthen your company culture via your HR department. Greater employee satisfaction: HR supports employees, understands employee motivations, and ensures the best employee experience is met. Better training and development: HR identifies employee training needs, keeping in mind that training is a continuous process. Employee skills are kept up to date, bringing valuable and innovative ideas to the company. You’ll want these needs to fit in with your wider business strategy. HR-departmental investments are well-placed. However, what if you could obtain these benefits, and yet bring HR-related expenditures down? This is where your HR toolkit comes into play. If you take the time to collect the right tools and build an HR toolkit that fits your organization, you’ll save money, witness improvements in efficiency, better employee experience, make better decisions, and enhance regulatory compliance. Sounds like a sweet deal, eh? Process Street recommends you take the time to optimize your HR toolkit by using the right HR tools for you and your team. And for that, you’ve come to the right place. For the remainder of this article, we’ll take a sweeping tour of our top 33 HR tools, split per HR specific function.
