Role of E- HRM in Organizational Effectiveness and Sustainability

Abstract

Information technology is changing the way HR departments handle record keeping and information sharing. It decreases the paperwork substantially and allows easy access to voluminous data. The processing and transmission of digitalized HR information is called Electronic Human Resource Management (E-HRM). E-HRM is the relatively new term for this IT supported HRM, especially through the use of web technology. E-HRM technology is a way of aligning and coping up with organization HR strategies, policies and practices. The main objective of the study is to measure the effectiveness of E-HRM for Sustainable Development of the organization in this fast competitive world. This study further shows that E-HRM aims at transforming the HR functions into paperless, more flexible and resource efficient and also helps the organization to improve employee competences, which resulted in cost reduction and reduction of the administrative burden as well.
