Exploring The Impact Of Hra Implementation On Hr Professionals, Organizational Performance, And Beyond

Abstract

This article delves into the dynamic realm of Human Resource Analytics (HRA) implementation in the Information Technology (IT) industry, unravelling its intricate relationship with HR professionals and organizational performance. Acknowledging the monumental role of HR in industry success, the study navigates through the evolution of HRA activities from manual processes to contemporary techniques such as data mining analytics, big data analytics, and artificial intelligence.While the Western IT industry initially embraced HRA, the study sheds light on its subsequent adoption in the Indian IT sector. Despite awareness, the Indian IT landscape lacks comprehensive insights into HR systems, teams, and talent, revealing deficiencies in sustainability, flexibility, training, data availability, and self-efficacy. The positive relationship between HRA and HR professionals is evident, but challenges persist due to inadequate guidance and insufficient guidelines, hindering optimal implementation.The research objectives are threefold: first, to explore the perspectives of HR professionals on HRA implementation; second, to assess the degree of HRA adoption in the IT industry, emphasizing its impact on organizational performance and self-efficacy; and third, to scrutinize the utilization of implemented HRA practices by HR professionals, addressing key challenges in sustainability, flexible working hours, training, data availability, and self-efficacy.A cross-sectional survey methodology was employed, encompassing 274 IT companies with a focus on 245 organizations through a questionnaire disseminated via email. Responses from 190 IT businesses facilitated a comparative analysis, offering a snapshot of the current state of HRA adoption and its implications on HR professionals in the IT sector.In unraveling the nuances of HRA implementation, this study aspires to provide valuable insights, bridge existing gaps, and contribute to the development of progressive guidelines for a harmonious relationship between HRA, HR professionals, and organizational success in the IT industry.
