Question

Outsourcing is just one trend within the HRM field where technology has played a role. How has that impacted the workplace? Share your experiences.

Answer 1

Human Resource is one of those industries which does not quite make its way into science fiction books, and no kid grows up thinking of revolutionizing the technology inside this particular market. Traditionally, HR was always viewed as a paper-intensive, non-innovative area, where salary decisions are made, people get hired or fired and where team building sessions are organized. But behind the scenes, the industry is changing and incorporating technology at a rapid pace, even if it wasn’t designed for HR to start with.

Even within HR, outsourcing isn’t all that new. For many years, certain HR functions have been outsourced by many companies, including temporary placement (temp agencies now even set up shop on-site), employee assistance programs, 401(k) plans, relocation, medical-claims processing, transaction processing and awards and incentives programs.

• Virtual and augmented reality - While virtual reality has been around for a few years, consumer applications are barely making strides in the market.
• Advanced Machine Learning - Machine learning is automated data analysis through algorithms that automatically create analytical models.

Technology changes the way HR departments contact employees, store files and analyze employee performance. Technology makes it easier to gather and break down data on employees to get an overall picture.
