Social HR : The Benefits and How It Helps
One of the key characteristics of humans is the ability of socialising. Socialising is a trait which has enabled humans to interact with their peers, exchange ideas and information. Social interaction not just happens among the average community but also within the work environment. This has given birth to the concept of social HR within the organisation. Social HR has evolved into the game changer of the organisation, as employees are socially connected now and engaged at work. This empowers employees to be more aligned to organisational values and outperform everyone else.
Traditional HR systems have always had the strength of storing and handling data, but not perfect in people motivation. Social HR platforms have driven HR to be strategic, flexible and integrated. Using of online social media portals to fulfil HR functions has seen a significant rise in employee engagement. In the ever evolving business world, increased communication has helped employees to reach out to their peers across the workplace and share information, learn from them as well as aid those who need help in their work. Traditionally, social HR concentrated on the available social networks such as Twitter, LinkedIn and many others, but nowadays, many HRIS vendors tend to build their own social tool into their systems, allowing organisations to use these systems seamlessly for interaction within the organisation.
