A human element in HR will be still necessary. Striking the right balance between technology (e.g., assessing applicants for open positions) and people (e.g., making sure that employees are actually alert and following mandatory training, that videos aren’t only being played with nobody paying attention) is going to be of great importance.
Employee portals save time
Employee portals are great. They serve as a go-to place for virtually anything employees need. All handbooks, access applications and forms are in one place – that's what makes working life much easier. A calendar of company events and the possibility to ask questions or make complaints may be also available. For continuous performance management, the results of performance reviews could be made available as well.
If your company is neglecting the employee portal, it can run into problems. It creates confusion, since people don’t have quick access to all the information they need. It's simply unproductive. Today, you need a user-friendly employee portal, according to an article on the business2community.com website.
Internal processes should be digital
Internal process can be also improved by introducing digital solutions. Digital record keeping aims at eliminating forms and streamlining important processes. Be it hiring or onboarding, performance reviews and offboarding, digital elements make all these processes easier.
Having digital records also makes it very easy to keep everything in order and readily at hand. Artificial intelligence will be deployed in HR as well – it can be especially useful for analyzing performance.
