Abstract:
Electronic Human Resource Management has brought about a paradigm shift in the way operational,
relational and transformational functions of HRM are performed. Most of the companies across the
globe have digitized their HR practices of recruitment, selection, training, performance management,
compensation management, leave and attendance management, time management and other
operative and strategic functions either through adoption of integrated software applications like
SAP or Oracle People soft, or through adoption of standalone applications like Applicant Tracking
System, Recrumax, Learning Management System, Payroll, Performance Management Suite and so
on. Through this study an effort was made to analyze the effectiveness of e-HRM in auto-component
industry from multi- dimensional perspective. e-recruitment, e-selection, e-learning, e-performance
management and e-compensation management are the five core dimensions of e-HRM considered for
the study. A research premise was developed and tested based on the opinion survey of around 110
HR practitioners at Senior and middle levels of management from 44 select auto-component firms.
The findings explicate that technology integration with HR practices in auto-component industry is
yielding significant benefits to the firms in the form of reduced cost per hire, increased applicant
volume, and enhanced quality, simplified processes, reduced cycle-time of HR and many others which
are discussed in detail in this paper.
