A STUDY ON INFLUENCE OF HUMAN RESOURCES ANALYTICS ON PERFORMANCES MANAGEMENT IN SERVICES SECTOR OF SELECTED COMPANIES IN TAMILNADU

Abstract

The role of HR has developed over time from the administrative function towards more strategic partnership. A major driving force behind this evolution has been the technological development. The collecting, storing and processing of data has been in central role in the gradual evolution of HRM. Still throughout past decades academics and practitioners have questioned the success of HR´s development to more strategic role. One challenge has been the ability to produce accurate information of people related issues and make fact-based strategic HRM decisions. In recent years a growing belief have risen that HR analytics could be the answer to these challenges and improve the data-driven HRM in a way that could help HR achieve its strategic position. Still relatively limited amount of research related to HR analytics can be found and therefore its real potential remains to be a question mark. Hence the purpose of this thesis is to deepen the understanding of HR analytics and its implementation. Also, the possible connections between HR analytics and broader concept of data-driven HRM are examined
