HR Shared Service Centers

An HR Shared Service’s role is to manage employee relations and provide a standardized customer services for personnel regardless of their location. For a better service delivery, large companies automate most of their processes. Moreover, integrating technology at a high level allows HR professionals to focus more on important tasks and allocate less time for transactional matters.

Automating processes provides yet another advantage – it enables easier tracking of performance data. More and more organizations turn to monitoring KPIs as they can provide insights and clarity in regards to how the business is doing by analyzing data. As there are a multitude of metrics that can be measured, it is important to concentrate only on the most relevant ones. KPIs should be able to reflect how the HR services are providing value for the company, not only by reflecting past performance, but also by offering a glance into the future, and signaling potential evolution.

Furthermore, the organization must nurture a performance culture, which ensures decisions are taken on performance data.
