INTRODUCTION TO HRIS


       HRIS can be define a system used to acquire, store, manipulate, analyze, retrieve, and distribute information regarding an organization’s human resources. An HRIS is not sim­ply computer hardware and associated HR-related software. Although an HRIS includes hardware and software, it also includes people, forms, policies and procedures, and data. The paper systems that most companies used before the development of computer technology were still comparable with an HRIS, but the management of employee information was not done as quickly as in a computerized system. The primary purpose of the HRIS is to provide service, in the form of accurate and timely information, to the “clients” of the system. There are a variety of poten­tial clients, as HR information may be used for strategic, tactical, and operational decision making; to avoid litiga­tion; to evaluate programs, policies, or practices and to support daily operations.
