Blog 6 - Trends In HRM : Innovative Technology to Boost Employee and Organizational Productivity

Managing and keeping employees is one of the most crucial HR decisions in today's highly competitive market. When deciding whether to train existing employees in-house or hire new employees, the cost aspect is critical. So, much as other departments do for their operations, controlling workforce efficiency entails improving the ROI (return on investment) for labor expenses.

Companies now days are made up of networks of teams, with team management at the center of organizational architecture. Many firms are replacing their fundamental systems with cloud-based systems, which are based on applications and data centers, with the consequence that employee productivity is improving. The emphasis in software is shifting away from analytics and toward artificial intelligence.

These innovative technologies have been found to be cost-effective. The focus is mostly on cost reduction and employee happiness.

Here are some technologies that are used to increase productivity

1 – Use Virtual Private Networks. ...

2 – Use Video Conferencing Software. ...

3 – Use a Networked Voice and Data Solution. ...

4 – Use an Outsourced IT Service Provider. ...

5 – Use the Cloud. ...

6 – Use a Scheduling System.

The focus on employee growth and improvement is the driving force behind these changes in HR. Now, organizations and creative software developers are collaborating to create the finest solution for organizational development, which will be even more critical for the organization's overall success.

The latest technology will be used to improve employee communications, and tools and applications will be useful in engaging staff. Using these new communication mechanisms, training may be achievable. It is necessary to recognize and reward innovative thoughts and labor. Allow staff some discretion in making judgments so that they may apply creative approaches. This relationship between employee and employer is helpful for the company when the employee understands that the organization is very attentive about his incentives and promotions. 

The following are new trends in HR practices: disruption in technology, people management, talent management, and productivity development are the main goals of this new trend. 

A) There are seven HRM trends that have been recognized.

Conclusion

HR management is primarily concerned with employee-employer connections. The focus of HRM will remain the same in the new era, which is controlled by technology, but thanks to the use of cutting-edge technology, we may have access to a smart digital context of HR operations with higher-quality HR data, allowing for right decision-making and data management.

EHRM and cognitive HRM will have a significant influence on today's HR practices, correct?

The mainstream literature has mostly concentrated on the following three questions: 1)       1.  What is Human Resource Management (HRM)? 2)        2.  What is the definition of performance? 3)        3.  What ties them together?

In a worldwide market where millions of firms compete for the best personnel, a company must be able to inspire and reward people effectively or risk losing them to a rival. The management of reward strategy, which ensures organizational well-being, has frequently been stressed in organizational discourse. This is due to the fact that one of the most basic issues of reward management is how it may help encourage people to attain high levels of performance, secure their retention, and increase output in the firm (Armstrong and Stephen, 2005). The term ‘’reward‘ is discussed frequently in organizational literature as something that an organization offers to the employees in response to their contributions and performance and also something which is desired by the employees (Agarwal, 1998). The objective of a reward plan  to design policies and procedures that will attract, retain, and inspire high-quality workers  to assist the attainment of organizational goals and offer fair a...
