OVERVIEW
HR metrics should not be developed in a silo or owned exclusively by human resources. To be of value, HR metrics should measure the business factors that are important to the organization not just HR and should be co-owned by HR and the C-suite, other departments, and line managers.
The HR metrics that matter are the ones that incorporate the input of stakeholders and contribute to informed decision-making. From this perspective, HR metrics should be predictive and action oriented. HR metrics that do not assist organizational decision making are of little value.
The issue is not the number of metrics. As Albert Einstein noted: “Everything that counts can’t be measured and everything that can be measured does not count.”
Thus, the measurement of business outcomes is a critical component of the HR audit process. Your organization’s HR analytics and metrics should help you assess the value and contribution of your organization’s human capital; should focus your organization’s attention on how human capital helps it achieve its business objectives; should help you measure and assess human capital management and employment practices liability related risks; should help you in assessing key compliance indicators; and should help you assess individual and organizational performance.
WHY SHOULD YOU ATTEND
Increasingly, senior management seeks information about how it can improve key elements of the organization – this includes human resources. At the same time, investors, lending institutions, and third-party administrators are constantly imposing requirements upon organizations that ensure resources are properly used and that results are properly reported.
Meanwhile, governmental and regulatory agencies have put employers on notice that they must create, maintain, and demonstrate procedures and activities that they are in compliance with the laws.
In this environment, organizations need metrics and measurements that are strategic, operational, and transactional. They need HR analytics that help them identify and predict future events. They need HR metrics that help them identify and assess the monetary and non-monetary risks and help them manage revenue generation, productivity, labor costs, and profitability. Additionally, organizations need HR performance measurement, that helps them demonstrate their level of compliance.
The failure to achieve these goals can mean lost business opportunities, may make their desired employment brand and their ability to attract and retain top performers more difficult to achieve, and may result in legal employment liabilities.
This webinar discusses the use of HR metrics and measurements in helping organizations assess these risks and discusses the use of HR related Key Compliance Indicators (KCIs) that can be used in demonstrating required levels of compliance.
