Abstract: An HRIS, which is also known as a human resource information system or human
resource management system (HRMS), is basically an intersection of human resource and
information technology through a HR software solution. This facilitates HR activities and
processes to occur electronically. The Human Resource Information System (HRIS) is a software
or online solution for the data entry, data tracking, and data information needs of the Human
Resources, payroll, management, and accounting functions within a business. The goal of HRIS
is to merge the different parts of human resource including payroll, labor productivity, and
benefit management into a less capital intensive system than the mainframes used to manage
activities in the past also called Human Resource Management systems (HRMS). A HRIS
generally enables to effectively plan, control and manage HR related activities with improved
efficiency and quality in HR decision making and enhance employee and managerial
productivity and effectiveness. This research paper helps to know about the effect of HRIS in an
organization to enhance the efficiency of work.
Keywords- HRIS, HRM, HRMS and Human Resource.
I. Introduction
In the fast changing world in which we reside, new technology is continually being developed.
This change requires organizational leaders to be familiar with the different types of technology
which would enhance the organizational effectiveness.
Human Resource Information Systems (HRIS) have drastically evolved since they were first
introduced more than 50 years ago and they have progressed far beyond their original purposes
of converting paper records into computerized databases. In modern times, HR/payroll systems
are able to handle several of HR’s numerous functional activities. HR Software is now full of
advanced features and not just the data storage systems we once knew them as. The developed
HRIS will help the organization to effectively store employee records more securely and
accurately. Modern HRIS systems are now tools that HR Professionals can use on a daily-basis
for multiple purposes. In the past, companies were used to tracking data on paper and
spreadsheets. However, with technological advancements many companies have realized the
need to implement more sophisticated computerized systems, like Human Resource Information
Systems. By upgrading to HRIS, at present companies are able to keep more accurate and up-to-
date records, allowing them to better prepare for future growth in their companies. In most
situations, an HRIS will also lead to increases in efficiency when it comes to making decisions in
HR. The decisions made should also increase in quality—and as a result, the productivity of both
employees and managers should increase and become more effective in the current digital age.
II. Definition
A human resource information system (HRIS) is software containing a database that allows the
entering, storage and manipulation of data regarding employees of a company. It allows for
global visualization and access of important employee information.[1]
A system which seeks to merge the activities associated with human resource management
(HRM) and information technology (IT) into one common database through the use of enterprise
resource planning (ERP) software. The goal of HRIS is to merge the different parts of human
resources, including payroll, labor productivity, and benefit management into a less capital-
intensive system than the mainframes used to manage activities in the past. Also called Human
Resource Management Systems (HRMS) [2]
5. Enhances Productivity
New employees are usually hired to fill vacancies left by more experienced staff. When an
employee quits or is fired, the remaining staff is left to fulfill the departing employee’s duties as
well as their own. Often times, morale suffers as there is more work with no more pay. An HRIS
helps ensure that new employees are completely trained and that they can quickly and effectively
fill the old employee’s duties. With better initial and ongoing training, a company will see higher
employee morale, lower turnover and greater efficiency. All of these factors will naturally lead to
enhanced productivity and a better bottom line.
These five benefits stated above justify the consideration of an HRIS by any company, small or
large. It is true that implementation and the full benefits may not be obvious immediately but the
benefits will surely demonstrate themselves over time.
XI. Recommendation:
Considering the findings, the study recommended that in using human resource information
system, organizations should train the employees regularly as per the organizational
requirements so that the employees uses the HRIS without human error to speed up information
sharing and decision making in the organization using HRIS may also contact educational
institutions like training colleges, polytechnics and universities in order to cope with the
challenges of workforce shortages timely. By doing this, organizations will have information
concerning labour and thereby reduce labour shortage challenges. Further, they should
implement the recommendation from their HRIS concerning successive planning and training of
employees in order to accomplish the desired performance of the organization.
