MEASURING HUMAN RESOURCE EFFECTIVENESS: WHY DO IT?
• Market the function• Provides accountability• Demonstrate contribution to bottom line• Cost justify HRM programs• Tie to strategic planning

IDENTIFYING HRIS VALUE
• HR moving from being a cost center to profit center(Cascio, 2000)
• Traditional financial measures not sufficient—many HR outcomes are intangible (e.g., employee engagement)
• Direct (hard) and indirect (soft) benefits• Implementation costs: direct (h/w, s/w,
customization); indirect (lost productivity)• Timing of benefits (short and long term)

EVALUATING HUMAN RESOURCE PRACTICES: APPROACHES
• Audit approach – key indicators– reviews outcomes of HR functions– benchmarking
• Analytic approaches – best practices– determines whether program had intended
effect/impact: Fitz-Enz– estimates costs and benefits of program utility
analysis: CBA

HRIS COST–BENEFIT ANALYSIS
• Language of business is dollars, and HR should learn this language
• HRIS CBA: Comparison of projected costs and benefits• Covers full suit of HRIS functionality
(transactional/traditional/transformational)• HR Metrics: Absence rate, cost per hire, health care costs, HR
expense factor, human capital ROI and value added, training costs, turnover costs, OHS costs . . .
• Compare costs/value within and outside

JUSTIFYING HRIS COSTS
• Risk avoidance strategies • Organization enhancement strategies:
Increased revenue or reduced costs due to new/ improved HRIS
• Evolution: manual to automation; Web applications; further improvements will have incremental not radical benefits; value add is seen as more important than cost reduction but how to measure it?

HRIS CBA INVESTMENT ANALYSIS
• Requires three basic pieces of information1. Sources of costs and benefits2. An estimated dollar value for each cost and
benefit item3. The time when the organization will incur each
cost and receive each benefit

ESTIMATING INDIRECT BENEFITS
• Estimating benefit magnitude• Mapping benefits to cost or revenue changes• Converting magnitude estimates to dollars
– e.g., estimating the value of exit interviews in reducing turnover

COSTING EMPLOYEE TURNOVER
• Three components of costing employee turnover– Separation costs– Replacement costs– Training costs

SEPARATION COSTS
• Exit Interview– Interviewer’s time– Termination time
• Administrative functions related to termination– Removal of employee from payroll– Termination of employee benefits– Turn-in of company equipment
• Separation pay– Severance packages
• Increase in unemployment taxKavanagh, Human Resource Information Systems 4e.

REPLACEMENT COSTS
• Replacement costs consist of eight components:– Communication of job availability– Pre-employment administrative functions– Entrance interviews– Testing– Staff meetings– Travel and moving expenses– Postemployment acquisition and dissemination of
information– Medical examination

METHODS FOR ESTIMATING THE VALUE OF INDIRECT BENEFITS: EMPLOYEE TIME SAVED
• Average employee contribution (AEC)– Baseline contribution value by jobs that is consistent with
the actual financial performance of the organization. – AEC = (Net revenues – Cost of goods sold)/No. of
employees
• Individual employee differences (variance) in work outcomes – Variance differences are produced by a large number of
individuals holding equivalent positions– Basis for utility analyses for developing contrasting cost–
benefit ratios Kavanagh, Human Resource Information Systems 4e.

PROBLEM AVOIDANCE: KEEP IN MIND THESE THREE ISSUES WHEN DOING A CBA
• DO NOT ignore HR’s more strategic role in improving organizational effectiveness
• CAREFULLY EXAMINE YOUR COST AVOIDANCE, AND MAKE SURE WHICH ARE DIRECT AND WHICH ARE INDIRECT. Document your assumptions for later use.
• Be sure that value estimates assigned to time saved are reasonable
