Three ways IT is supporting and automating HR - TechHQ

The HR function is changing with technology. There is no doubt that technology has changed the roles and responsibilities of essentially all employees within nearly every industry over the last few decades, but none more than those in the IT department, and most directly those leading the IT department. With the role of CIO often encompassing both IT and HR processes, it is clear that the two departments are growing increasingly dependent on one another to function efficiently. According to a recent report by Sage, 82 percent of HR leaders anticipate that their role will be unrecognizable in 10 years' time, thanks in large part to the transformation from HR to a "People" function and the adoption of technology. This "People" function will incorporate "Operations", which accounts for productivity, employee loyalty, change management and even tech adoption. As tech becomes more embedded in our way of work-- within even the most resistant of industries-- typical HR duties will have an increasingly strong thread of tech running through them, including the use of AI and automation.
