Human Resources Information Management

• Identifies HR information that the organization needs to achieve its business objectives
• Interprets HR information to meet the needs of the organization (e.g. labour costing, succession planning, legislated reporting requirements, reorganization planning, and training priorities)
• Evaluates the effectiveness of current HR information management within the organization
• Develops policy regarding confidentiality of HR information, including limits on the extent to which confidentiality can be assured
• Balances confidentiality requirements with HR administrative requirements (e.g. requirement for information for the resolution of benefits or a Workers’ Compensation Board (WCB) claim that may be in occupational health records)
• Contributes to development of specifications for the acquisition and/or development of HR information management systems and their implementation
• Evaluates alternatives for providing HR information management needs, considering current and future organizational needs and capabilities, and the associated costs and benefits
