As the HR director, you were given the task of providing awards to all employees with 10, 20, and 30 years of service to the organization. However, your company has 25,000 employees globally. Explain how an HRIS can assist you in completing this task.

What will be an ideal response?


Answers will vary. Student responses should include how, in the past, this task would have required the HR director to manually review paper files for each employee to retrieve their start date with the organization. However, an HRIS with accurate information for all locations can allow the HR director to quickly run a report containing this information. Potential challenges may include the need to run reports in multiple systems if the systems vary for each location or region, but even this would be quicker than reviewing 25,000 paper files.
