Over 70 per cent of organisations in Asia-Pacific are looking to increase their HR technology spending, says the 21st edition of the Sierra Cedar 2018-19 HR Systems Survey White Paper. Released during the SHRM HR Tech conference in Hyderabad, the Survey provides a comprehensive landscape on the adoption of use of HR tech.
It says that while Asia-Pacific organisations are currently 20 per cent lower in their overall usage of HR applications than their counterparts in North America or EMEA, it expects the gap to close rapidly as there are double-digit increases in the adoption of all HR Technology categories over the last three years here.
“The region is also bypassing many of the early mistakes made by organisations embarking on enterprise technology implementations by investing in critical HR Technology practices such as implementing an HR Systems Strategy, investing in standard approaches to integration, and developing continuous change management models,” says the report. Payroll and Attendance are the top most HR tech applications in use in Asia Pacific at 89 per cent and 88 per cent usage while career planning and business intelligence are least used apps at 34 per cent and 32 per cent usage.
