It's should come as no surprise that the way companies do business is changing. They are being affected by the emergence of new technologies that make it possible to streamline a number of essential processes, from hiring and communicating to managing documents.
As many businesses are still working on strained budgets, they often consider making certain functions, such as recruiting employees and administering benefits, more efficient and therefore less expensive. NBC Chicago points out that human resources departments are among those facing the most strain, working to
balance their budgets and time. To walk this line, they are looking for ways to improve their employee recruitment processes by writing detailed job descriptions, pre-screening applicants and asking for employee referrals.
Other companies are outsourcing human resources completely so they can
benefit from professional advice without bringing individuals with higher prices tags onto payroll, according to The New York Times. Suzanne Lucas, author of a blog called The Evil HR Lady told the source that outsourcing allows firms to spend a small amount and get a lot in return. This strategy has become even more feasible in the past few years as the departments have become more focused on compliance and data collection than training and advice.
