RECENT TRENDS IN HRM
1. A hybrid structure
The personnel groups relocated when work-from-home became a routine, leaving all the
teams and companies to disband from one particular geographical location to
anywhere in the nation.
Where some organizations are encouraging their employees to start in-office jobs again,
many are content with a hybrid culture and are continuing to play by that.
2. Global expansion on the rise
Shifting your work into the global market – remote working is an initial step. With changing
times and technology the trends in HRM have taken a turn too, and the inauguration of
a business in foreign lands is becoming a cakewalk. Furthermore, governments uplifting
strict policies in this post-pandemic era – support the businesses too.
3. Employee experiences take precedence
Employees today don’t just want a good paycheck but a quality culture and healthy work
environment as well. As a part of trends in HRM, a good remuneration retains an
employee, and a qualified environment and experience assist in the choice too.
HR leaders should bring about methods to encourage positive workforce health, making
the employees more flexible to changes and disruptions.
4. Analytics gaining the front seats
With no physical human contact, tracking and measuring the work and employees became
strenuous, especially when the workforce is spread throughout the globe. Analytics is
said to play an impacting role in offering information for decision-making.
5. A surge in monitoring the employees
With the growing number of hybrid workers, managers are often unable to scrutinize every
single employee and their work. The lack of personal interaction led to a surge in
employee monitoring techniques that gave birth to yet another set of trends in HRM.
Keeping track of work and performance, attendance, and leaves, are just a portion of
employee monitoring practices.
6. Automation of everyday tasks
To give precedence to high-value and productive workings, HR leaders can leverage AI-
powered solutions to automate their daily tasks that were carried out manually.
Practices such as screening, sourcing talents, onboarding, keeping check of attendance,
etc., and a lot more now can be carried out by the systems in this tech-driven world.
7. Augmenting the hiring processes
Yet another perk that can be considered as a part of trends in HRM are chatbots. With their
assistance, employers can now manage to select quality candidates for relevant
positions out of the ample talent pools available.
Solutions such as resume screening choose explicit candidate profiles, subsequently
ensuing in higher work performance and enhanced productivity.
The top solutions AI offers to the HR sector are, cloud solutions, bots, language processing,
digital assistants, automated solutions, etc., which are just some initial ones. ‘
From learning how to administer the work-from-home workers to pivoting toward the
contactless deliveries, everything was put on the table in front of us in a haphazard
manner.

What is a HRM Plan?
HRM is a strategic and systematic approach to managing
people in a way that would maximise their motivation and
contribution towards meeting the organisation’s objectives. A
HRM Plan is a departmental document which sets out what
programmes are required in the following few years to practise
HRM in the department. The aim of a HRM Plan is to help the
department to achieve its mission and objectives through a
systematic design and implementation of HRM programmes.
5 Steps in Developing a HRM Plan
• 1. Conduct a departmental strategic analysis: The results of this step are
an understanding of the department's vision, mission, values; a strategic
review of the department; and understanding of the challenges facing the
department.
• 2. Identify strategic HR issues arising from the strategic analysis:
Building on the results of step one, the outcome of this step is an analysis
of the strategic HR issues facing the department.
• 3. Identify ongoing HR issues: In addition to the strategic HR issues
identified in step two, the ongoing HR issues impacting the department's
effectiveness must also be identified.
• 4. Prioritize the strategic and ongoing HR issues and
determine actions: Once all the HR issues have been
identified through steps two and three, they should be
prioritized and key actions required in respect of each issue
identified with input from the department's top management.
• 5. Draw up the HRM Plan: Once the department's top
management has given their input into the HR priority issues
and key actions to be taken in step four, the HRM Plan and its
associated programmes are ready to be formulated.
