  Human Resource Information System (HRIS) – Enhancing HRM

1.1 Introduction

The co!'etition a!ong the co!'anies is actually the co!'etition of hu!an resources< as

the !ar8et reveals. - co!'any< as a 'rofit='ursuing organi>ation< is al,ays under the

 'ressure of delivering ne, 'roducts to ,in !ar8et share. /ithout high ?uality hu!an

resources and its effective functioning< a co!'any can hardly endure the 'rofit 'ressure

and 'ursue its long ter! business strategy. The 'ast decades has ,itnessed the transition of

e!'loyee beco!ing the !ost 'recious ca'ital in the co!'any and the ascent of #u!an

%esource Manage!ent #%M5 Schuler< 1**5. The strengthened !anage!ent of hu!an

resources is no, the very essence of a successful business story.

 +o,adays< business ,orld is undergoing a substantial change the e!'loyee turn=over rate

 beco!es high< and both the organi>ation structure and !anage!ent 'attern change as

,ell. The traditional #%M style fails to catch u' ,ith such ra'id changes the traditional

style !ainly focuses on su''ortive 'ersonnel activities for a co!'any< for e;a!'le<

collecting e!'loyee infor!ation< !onitoring individual 'erfor!ance< and i!'le!enting

organi>ation 'olicies. It is a 'assive< sub!issive e;ecution< ,ithout self=!otivated

 'artici'ation into strategic issue to foresee the challenges of to!orro,. Therefore< there

co!es a de!and for the ne, #%M that should understand the business strategy< for!ulate

the corres'onding !anage!ent strategy on hu!an resources to i!'rove delivered service<

and act as a strategy 'artner ,ith to' !anage!ent tea! :eer< 1**&@ Mohr!an 9 a,er<

1**&5.

To !eet the de!and< there is an increasing 'ressure on #%M to su''ort strategic

objectives and to focus on value=adding activities< ,hich conse?uently leads to the change

in the job content and the e;'ectations on #u!an %esource #%5 'rofessionals.

Shrivastava et al. 235 and Stone et al. 265 note that one of such changes is that the

,ide< conte!'orary use of Infor!ation Technology IT5 in su''orting various #%

activities. Moreover< the researchers e;'ect that the increasing use of #u!an %esource

Infor!ation Syste! #%IS5 can i!'rove the 'erfor!ance of #% 'rofessionals and !a8es

the! involved in the co!'any internal consulting activities -lbers et al. 1**&5. In

addition< Alrich 1**&5 !entions that the use of #%IS 'rovides value to the organi>ation

and raise #% 'rofessionalsB status in the organi>ation. In a 2 recent theoretical

develo'!ent< Alrich and :roc8ban8 2"5 e!'hasi>e the need for #% 'rofessionals to

 beco!e business strategic 'artners.

These 'heno!ena arouse a fe, ?uestions about the interrelationshi' bet,een the #%

function and the e!erging #%IS

oes the #%IS have the i!'act on the changing #% function0

In ,hich ,ays does #%IS su''ort the changing role of #% function0 #o, does #%IS influence the #% function transfor!ation0

riven by these ?uestions< ,e start to e;'lore the interrelationshi' bet,een the #%IS and

the #% function transfor!ation< ,hich is the 'ur'ose of this ter! 'a'er.

1.2 Objectives of the Study

The !ain objective of this study is to 8no, and have a basic idea of #%IS. -long of this

objective so!e other s'ecial objectives !ay be e;'osed as under

• To 8no, the historical bac8ground of #%M and #%IS.

• To 8no, the i!'act of #%IS on #%M.

• To 8no, the necessities of #%IS.

• To 8no, the different for!s of #%IS.

• To 8no, the a''lication of #%IS in different countries.

• To 8no, the 'resent situation of using #%IS by different organi>ations in

:angladesh.

• To have 8no,ledge about the challenges of 'racticing #%IS in :angladesh.

1.3 Methodology of the StudyThe study is based on literature revie, and secondary data source@ collected data and

infor!ation have been 'rocessed and analy>ed syste!atically. This ter! 'a'er has been

 're'ared by latest data to !a8e the study !ore infor!ative and useful. Study 'eriod ,as

1.4 Limitation of the Study

uring the co!'letion of this ter! 'a'er< nu!erous 'roble!s have been encountered for

the acco!'lish!ent of the study. These 'roble!s !ay be ter!ed as li!itation of the

study< enu!erated as follo,s:

• Ti!e fra!e for the research ,as very li!ited. The actual survey ,as done ,ithin a

short 'eriod.

• Anavailability of ,ritten docu!ents as re?uire for !a8ing a co!'rehensive study.

• -s ,e had to sub!it the ter! 'a'er in a grou'< so!eti!es it !ade so!e 'roble!s

in case of coordination and or sharing the infor!ation ,ith each other.

• ast but not the least< no 'ri!ary data is involved in this study.

It see!s to us that during co!'letion of this re'ort necessary and u' to date infor!ation

,as not 'ossible to gathered< ,e thin8 if it ,as 'ossible then a fully fledged and

2.1 istorical !volution of "M

One can analy>e the historical trends of the #% function fro! different vie,'oints the

evolution of #%M as a 'rofessional and scientific disci'line< as an aid to !anage!ent< as

a 'olitical and econo!ic conflict bet,een !anage!ent and e!'loyees< and as a gro,ing

!ove!ent of e!'loyee involve!ent influenced by develo'!ents in

industrialorgani>ational and social 'sychology. This historical analysis ,ill de!onstrate

the gro,ing i!'ortance of e!'loyees fro! being just one of the !eans of 'roduction in

the 2th=century industrial econo!y to being a 8ey source of sustainable co!'etitive

advantage in the 21st=century 8no,ledge econo!y.

/e ,ill e;a!ine the develo'!ent of the fields of both #% and IT in ter!s of their

evolution since the early 2th century. This !eans e;a!ining the evolution of #%M

intert,ined ,ith develo'!ents in IT and describing ho, IT has 'layed an increasing role

in the #%M function. In addition< this historical analysis ,ill sho, ho, the role of #%M

in the fir! has changed over ti!e fro! 'ri!arily being concerned ,ith routine

transactiona! HR activities to dealing ,ith co!'le; transfor!ational ones. Transactional

activities are the routine boo88ee'ing tas8sDfor e;a!'le< changing an e!'loyeeBs ho!e

address or health care 'rovider=,hereas transfor!ational activities are those actions of an

organi>ation that Eadd valueF to the consu!'tion of the fir!Bs 'roduct or service. -n

e;a!'le of a transformationa! HR activity ,ould be a training 'rogra! for retail cler8s

to i!'rove custo!er service behavior. Thus< transfor!ational activities increase the

strategic i!'ortance and visibility of the #% function in the fir!. This general change

over ti!e is illustrated in (igure 1.1 and ,ill beco!e evident as ,e trace the historical

evolution of #%M in ter!s of five broad 'hases of the historical develo'!ent of industry

in the Anited States. (or !ore infor!ation on this historical develo'!ent< you should

2.2.2 &he traditional " function

In the 'ast< the #% function ,as recogni>ed as the 'ersonnel !anage!ent that focuses on

ad!inistration selection< a''raisal< re,ard< and develo'!ent5< ,elfare and industrial

relationshi'. The #% de'art!ent ,as treated less i!'ortant than financial and !ar8etingde'art!ents< because it did not create direct value< nor have any decision 'o,er on

strategic issue (o!brun< Tichy< 9 evanna< 1*)4@ #all 9 Hoodale< 1*)65.

The traditional 'ersonnel !anagers 'aid attention to labor !anage!ent< but did not

 'artici'ate into a co!'anyBs 'lanning and strategy decision. They 'aid great attention to

control their e!'loyees< including carefully designing the contracts and rules for

!onitoring the e!'loyees Storey< 1**"5.

The line !anagers at this !o!ent 'layed 'assive roles on the 'ersonnel !anage!ent

Storey< 1**"5. The line !anagers ,ere the transactor of the decisions !ade by the

 'ersonnel !anagers< and they ,ere the industrial relationshi' builders through the

negotiation ,ith e!'loyees and e!'loyers.

Figure- 2.# : $c%eme s%o&ing t%e traditional HR function

Since early 1*)s< the 'ersonnel !anage!ent started to shift to Ehu!an resource

!anage!entF< due to the fact that #% 'rofessionals ,ere considered to involve in strategic

 business decisions (o!brun< Tichy< 9 evanna< 1*)4@ #all 9 Hoodale< 1*)65. The !ain

tas8s of #% 'rofessionals still focused on the daily ad!inistration< but broadened

!anage!ent activities are involved in the #% function< ,hich reflected that the #%M

 began to 'ay its attention to the relationshi' ,ith strategic business issue.

-t this ti!e< the #% function ,as still considered as the e;clusive 'erfor!ance done

!ostly by #% de'art!ent< and it s'read its !ain activities onto three levels. The lo,est

level ,as the o'erational level< ,hich !anaged the daily 'ersonnel issue of the

organi>ation. The second ,as the !anagerial level ,hich !ainly concerned ho, to

!anage the ca'able ,or8force by ac?uisition< retention and develo'!ent. The highest

level ,as the strategy level. #% function 'aid attention to the future develo'!ent of

2.2.3 &he 'e( " function

#u!an resource !anage!ent has develo'ed for al!ost t,enty years@ and the #% function

has changed a lot fro! the activities to !anage!ent level. It !a8es the traditional

structure of #% function different that the line !anagers and e!'loyees involve in #%

issue. :ut #% 'rofessionals are still considered as the core of ,or8force !anage!ent<

es'ecially to,ards the strategy as'ect. Thus< Alrich has defined the Efour roles of #%

 'rofessional !odelF in 1**&< and later develo's the !odel in 2" to e;a!ine the

changing of #% 'rofessionals. In the follo,ing 'aragra'hs< the goal of understanding #%

function is se'arated into these three levels #% 'rofessional< line !anager and e!'loyee<

through AlrichBs !odel and theories fro! literature.

&he role of the " $rofessional

Ulrich’s model 1997 

In 1**&< Alrich defines four roles of #% 'rofessionals involved in the #% function

 'erfor!ance (igure 2."5.

Figure- 2.' : Four roles of HR professional ()lric%, 1**+

-ccording to Alrich 1**&5< Estrategic 'artnersF are the #% 'rofessionals< ,ho ,or8

together ,ith to' e;ecutives to !a8e co!'etitive business strategies and to figure

-nd they should also !a8e sure the i!'le!entation of the strategies. -t the sa!e ti!e<

they should develo' certain evaluation !ethod to esti!ate business results.

The second role of #% 'rofessional is Ead!inistrative e;'ertsF< ,ho should !a8e #%M

E$!'loyee cha!'ionsF is the de'utation of e!'loyees. That !eans< at this 'osition< the

first thing #% 'rofessionals should do is to understand and find out the de!and of

e!'loyees< by ta8ing friendly and useful co!!unication ,ith the! fre?uently. -t the

sa!e ti!e< they should 'rovide necessary resources to e!'loyees. The #% 'rofessionals

should !otivate their e!'loyees< and 'rovide certain training and learning 'rogra!s to

hel' e!'loyees reali>e their 'otential. $!'loyee cha!'ion also !eans that #%

 'rofessionals re'resent the voice of e!'loyees in the organi>ation< and they are

res'onsible for enhancing e!'loyee co!!it!ent< develo'ing e!'loyeesB co!'etence<

and enhancing the ca'ability of e!'loyees for the co!'etitiveness of organi>ation.

EChange agentsF are the #% 'rofessionals that su''ort and !anage the organi>ation

transfor!ation and the changes. In the changing 'rocess< Echange agentsF need to create

ne, culture to hel' organi>ation !e!bers get enough !otivation to 'artici'ate in the ne,

situation.

Ulrich and Brockbank’s model 2005

The #% function has ada'ted and changed< since the theoretical fra!e,or8 of #% four

roles !odel is launched by Alrich in 1**&. -ccording to the changing situation< Alrich and

:roc8ban8 2"5 have !ade so!e changes on the !odel of 1**&< to !a8e it suitable to

the actual #% function in the organi>ations. In 1**&< AlrichBs !odel divides #%

 'rofessionals to four roles strategy 'artner< ad!inistrative e;'ert< e!'loyee cha!'ion<

and change agent. In 2"< these four roles are e;'anding to five strategy 'artner<

functional e;'ert< e!'loyee advocate< hu!an ca'ital develo'er and #% leader. -t the

The strategy 'artner has !ulti'le roles according to Alrich and :roc8ban8Bs 2"5 ne,

o'inion it includes the business e;'ert< change agent< and 8no,ledge !anager. The

change agent that e;ists in the 'revious !odel no, beco!es 'art of the strategy 'artner.

The strategy 'artner should hel' line !anagers to reach their goals.

(unctional e;'ert is res'onsible for the #% 'ractices delivery. :esides the traditional

function of ad!inistrative e;'ert< the role of Efunctional e;'ertF is broadened by using

technologies for ad!inistrative efficiency.

$!'loyee advocate and hu!an ca'ital develo'er both concern e!'loyees. The difference

is that the e!'loyee advocate focuses on current e!'loyees< to !a8e sure that the

relationshi' bet,een e!'loyees and e!'loyers is !eaningful and friendly. The hu!an

ca'ital develo'er 'uts attention to the future ,or8force< including ac?uiring e;ternal

suitable ,or8force and hel'ing todayBs e!'loyees for future develo'!ent.

#% leader is the 'eo'le ,ho control the ,hole situation. The leadershi' is the su! of

above four roles. :eing an #% leader< heshe should set the relationshi's a!ong each #%

function< and su'ervise the ,hole #% co!!unity.

In conclusion< #% 'rofessionals have ,or8ed as business 'artners J !ore co!'etitive

 Business environmental change

The funda!ental changes in business ,orld have forced the #% function to shift and 'ut

the #% function into an i!'ortant status Schuler< 1**5. These changes include the

uncertainty of 'ersonnel !anage!ent caused by the ra'id business change. They alsoinclude the increasing co!'etitive 'ressure on 'rofit forces the organi>ations to reduce the
