And as different areas of your company become more closely integrated, it is important for HR to know how best to share data captured through various technology platforms across the organization. Digital HR Tech points out the importance of integrating HR’s data with that of other departments, as it reduces the chances of miscommunication between different business groups, bolsters consistency and promotes unity across the organization. According to Fast Company, HR professionals need to be skilled in the application of new technologies ranging from blockchain to artificial intelligence – or ready and able to quickly learn.

Implementing and enforcing workplace safety policies and procedures requires examining the issue from all angles and developing concrete guidelines that address situations that may lead to workplace violence and bullying. According to the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), each year approximately 2 million American workers a year document themselves as victims of violence in their professional lives. All told, more than 60 million people in the U. S. have suffered from in-office bullying, making it important to factor into your workplace safety strategy. Training also should include mental self-defense tactics deployable in the moment: for example, management consultant Lynne Curry told Fast Company that employees who remain neutral and show no emotion when being bullied can rob aggressors of their intended reaction and defuse the situation.

And the more time HR has to spend on administrative tasks like approving time-off requests, providing copies of year-end documents, or updating employees’ personal information, the less time they have for strategic initiatives, the sort of projects that can improve the candidate or employee experience or help the company achieve its goals. Empowering employees and managers to efficiently handle administrative tasks such as requesting and approving time-off, updating dependents or personal contact information, or checking a pay stub not only creates a better employee experience but also frees up time for HR. In periods of low unemployment like we have today, you simply can’t afford to have your recruiting and onboarding be bogged down in inefficiencies, especially if you’re in dire need of new employees for mission-critical open positions Cliff Justice, U.S. leader of intelligent automation operations at KPMG, explained how intelligent automation can critically aid organizations’ talent acquisition operations. “IA will free these teams from repetitive, routine tasks and enable them to focus on responsibilities that require a human touch … such as redesigning recruiting and onboarding processes, or developing new rewards and training programs to attract and retain top talent,” Justice told HR Technologist.
