1.Human resources professionals are upping their reliance on technology to manage safety and security information and functions. Workplace safety and security can benefit from technology by facilitating acquisition and analysis of injury and illness data, injury costs per employee, training documentation and management, performance management, electronic communications, digital access key log-in information, security camera data management and identity theft protection.

2.Biometrics devices that use fingerprints or other physical traits for identification can help solve some employee discipline problems and protect sensitive data. Time clocks are one of a growing number of workplace applications of biometrics.

3. Technology is helping in eliminating the need for travel and commuting in CISCO SERVICES,which reduces the cost of recruitment

4.During the last decade, the Internet has played a growing role in external recruiting. Large, all-purpose online job boards quickly found a place in recruitment. Meanwhile, niche sites catering to specific industries and demographic niches such as women and Asians won favor. Online corporate job sites and intranets have become key recruiting tools, allowing employers to get the word out about job openings quickly and inexpensively.

4.Employers also are using technology to market job openings more strategically. Many capitalize on emerging technology like RSS--real simple syndication--allowing online postings to reach job seekers via e-mail or text message as soon as a new job is posted. Others are enhancing traditional online listings with videos and podcasts.

5.Once an application comes in, many HR professionals tap desktop search engines such as Google to check backgrounds. A few employers check out workers' private blogs and entries they may have placed on social networking sites such as Facebook and MySpace. Others sign up for help from computerized background screening services.

6.Once a new hire comes on board, many HR professionals are relying on electronic onboarding systems to handle tasks including assigning packing passes, computers, uniforms, e-mail addresses and security badges. Some employers--particularly those with a scattered workforce--are capitalizing on computerized learning systems for orientation and to deliver coaching on topics from sexual harassment avoidance to conflict resolution.

EXAMPLES

*In the USA, outsourcing of functions in hospitals not directly related to the work of doctors and nurses (care of patients) has substantially increased the productivity of the hospitals, and provided new opportunities for service employees.

*In 2010, knowledge and information-based activities contributed to almost half of the gross national product and employed 47% of the American workforce . One could postulate that those numbers have increased over the last 30 years. As information has become an increasingly important feature in the business world, new technologies have become available to facilitate its use and dissemination. This has led to an ever expanding and evolving field of information technology (IT).

*Technology is also playing a pivotal role in the controversy regarding illegal immigration. Tens of thousands of employers are voluntarily using e-Verify, an Internet-powered tool offered free by the Social Security Administration and the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, to verify a match between employees' names, Social Security numbers and immigration information.

  1. The increased use of HR technology could lead to some uncertainty about the 'human' element of the job
  2. HR can increase communication by providing the technological tools for line managers to control their talent
  3. There are certain key trends emerging in the HR software space right now
  4. HR can start to use social media as an employee engagement tool
  5. Technology has helped hr to recruit people online using sites like monster job, naukricom etc.
  6. While human resources professionals can undoubtedly benefit from new software developments, there’s clearly the potential that increased automation could lead to some uncertainty about the 'human' element of their job. Some within the industry feel that technology is one factor that is bringing about a major change in the role of HR departments.

hello mam,

I’m going to talk about two technological developments that have made the job of HR managers easy.

1) .Technology threatens to replace human interaction in every venue of our lives. We telecommute; correspond with colleagues, friends and family via e-mail and instant-messaging; order groceries; and purchase virtually every good and service online. Technology-driven service is generally convenient, consistent and reliable. Although the initial investment and implementation can be costly, technology solutions generally have a short return on investment cycle and create economic efficiencies in the long term. The challenge is to motivate customers toward high-tech delivery channels by making them convenient, user-friendly and at a reduced cost over personal service options.

Banking customers ready for humans to be replaced with ATMs, Internet banking and Voice Response Units.In the early 1990s, Canadian Imperial Bank, in partnership with Safeway, failed at its attempt to operate SelectBank kiosks in Safeway stores where customers could only bank via ATM or online. On the other hand, Atlanta-based NetBank, founded in 1996, has built assets of almost $3 billion exclusively via the Internet. There is no doubt that more customers are using electronic delivery channels than ever before, but 92 percent of U.S. households visit a branch office at least once per month and 50 percent consider the branch their primary contact point, according to a recent TowerGroup report. As a result of this, many banks are renewing their focus on retail merchandising in branches and are recruiting more sales-oriented individuals for branches and call centers to maximize sales opportunities during these customer visits.With this work done within few minutes and no interaction with employees.

2).Softwares used in banking sector like "TALLY,MICROBANK5+,TITANIUM ORE,MONEYMAN,BANCADO software" includes modules for customer information, deposit accounts, certificates of deposit, installment loans, commercial loans, mortgage loans, general ledger, automated clearing house, and safe deposit box billing etc. works on computer , minimize the task of an employee and reduction in cost of employee.

Hello All
technology in designing can also reduce cost:
Companies can slash costs by improving the design process at its beginning. Design for manufacturing and assembly (DFMA) software includes a design-formanufacture module, with which engineers obtain early cost estimates on parts or products, and a design-for-assembly module, which they employ to determine the best methods to manufacture products.

hello mam..

Maximizing your company’s investments in eHR technology means keeping a focus on business goals and improvements to HR quality or efficiency. In most cases, the eHR solutions that have the greatest impact on the budget are the ones that affect the most people the most often like shaving a few dollars off the transaction that is performed 1,000 times per month

for ex -:it Provide self-service answers to frequently asked questions,

What happens to my 401(k) money if I leave? It s a simple question. A five-minute phone call. And, if the company is big enough, that question can cost $100,000 in calls over a few months.
Simple questions don t require the individual attention of expensive professionals. Even some complicated questions don t require that attention. Organizations can save significantly by using eHR to disseminate information effectively. For example:
" Use the Web to post the answers to Frequently Asked Questions. Even regular updates will be less time-consuming than answering the phone.
" Move from static answers to personalized ones by using a knowledge-based tool to categorize and deliver information in a self-service environment.
" Put time-off activity and balances right on the pay stub. Put pay-stub information online, for 24x7 access. Leveraging an established communications vehicle like the pay stub for a seemingly unimportant detail like this can provide unexpected savings.

Hello Ma'am

The core HR responsibilities are as diverse as recruitment, oversight of legal and regulatory compliance, benefits administration, and the safeguarding of confidential employee information cannot be carried out effectively without high-tech tools.

These days technology is advancing at an unstoppable rate, especially when it comes to information technology. While human resources professionals can undoubtedly benefit from new software developments, there’s clearly the potential that increased automation could lead to some uncertainty about the 'human' element of their job.

*Some within the industry feel that technology is one factor that is bringing about a major change in the role of HR departments.

*HR professionals also rely on automated systems to direct employee benefit contributions. Such systems automatically direct a portion of workers' pay toward their retirement savings plans unless employees opt out,which reduces the manual work leading to decrease in work force.

* HR functions are performed in the advent of high technology advances in conducting business processes over high-speed communications channels, termed e-business in today's market.'

*The growth of electronic communication and Internet has made the work very easy. HR professionals, working in tandem with information technologists, now rely on policy and software to monitor data flow, block inappropriate data such as pornography, and prevent the leaking of trade secrets.

*HR can start to use social media as an employee engagement tool.

The use of new technology and methods reduce the work of HR resulting in decrease in the work force requirement . Hence, it reduce the cost.
