THE IMPACT OF HUMAN RESOURCES INFORMATION SYSTEMS ON EFFICIENCY AND EFFECTIVENESS IN THE PHARMACEUTICAL INDUSTRY

Abstract

Effective human resource management is crucial to maintaining competitiveness and achieving organizational goals in the highly regulated and complicated environment that the pharmaceutical industry operates in. In recent years, the adoption of Human Resources Information Systems (HRIS) has gained significance as a tactical tool to increase efficiency and effectiveness in this industry. This abstract looks into how HRIS impacts efficiency and productivity in the pharmaceutical sector. A mixed-methods approach, which includes qualitative and quantitative methodologies, was employed as the research strategy for this study. A detailed literature study identifies key areas where HRIS might increase efficiency and effectiveness in the pharmaceutical industry. These areas include hiring and selection, performance management, training and development, and employee engagement. By facilitating effective internal communication, teamwork, and knowledge sharing, HRIS also promotes employee involvement. It provides self-service capabilities that let employees examine their payslips, request leave, and access and modify their personal information in an effort to reduce administrative burdens. HRIS also offers data-driven decision-making, helping HR professionals to make intelligent strategic decisions through robust analytic and reporting capabilities. HRIS installation in the pharmaceutical industry has several benefits, but problems with data security, system integration, and change management need to be fixed. Organizations should make major expenditures in robust security measures, ensure seamless integration with existing systems, and provide personnel with in-depth training to improve the effectiveness of HRIS adoption. In conclusion, the usage of HRIS increases the effectiveness and efficiency of the pharmaceutical industry. Businesses may speed up HR operations and boost employee engagement while also enhancing employee performance. By effectively implementing HRIS, pharmaceutical companies can get a competitive edge in a market that is growing more dynamic and competitive, which will ultimately lead to improved organizational performance and success.
