Human Resource is a department that interacts with everyone in the organization and plays a key role in ensuring that the company is making economical and efficient decisions that will benefit and promote growth for all employees.

In our increasingly digital world of work, we cannot be satisfied with the old solutions of the past. With COVID-19 came the realization that certain tasks are better executed with the help of technology rather than manual labour. What employees need now are innovative digital solutions. Through the implementation of HR technology, employees are able to improve their workflow, avoid repetitive tasks that often lead to burnout and put their entire focus on working to keep up and even surpass the ever-changing digital landscape.

Here are a few areas that you might want to consider implementing HR technology:

• Simply digitizing payroll processes not only saves finance people the time and effort of having to manually process such matters but also saves the company from having to print out the payroll slips and accumulating physical clutter around the workplace.

• Along with minimizing clutter, any receipts for company expenses no longer need to be physically presented to be recorded. Rather, finding digital ways for them to be inputted into the system is both faster and less likely to have mistakes made since you’re relying on a machine rather than a possibly overworked and tired employee.

• Implementing systems that better foster good communication amongst employees not only further fosters a good and healthy work culture but also allows employees to not be afraid to voice out concerns or problems they may have at work. The sooner you know about any problems they face, the sooner you will be able to understand and tackle the situation. Faster solutions equal happier employees and happier employees equal better results for the company.

• Providing technology that supports the employees’ growth and development within the company allows them to be a more valuable asset to the company but also shows the employees that you’re willing to support them and are not just going to give their position to a new employee that may have better skills.

Now, investing in new technologies might seem like a big undertaking for a company, especially smaller ones that might not have the resources to do so. But, the saying that “You have to spend money to make money” is so true in this case. As long as you are able to make a good starting investment, proper HR technology brings about more efficiency in the workplace, faster processes, and ultimately a happier and healthier workplace environment.
