Data your Management Team needs

2. HR Reporting Packages
• HR is typically sitting on a wealth of
data and knowledge but frequently
does not have the means or the know-
how to report it to the rest of the
organization, including actionable
insights, to assist the management
team in making data informed
decisions to run the business more
effectively.

HR Reporting Uses

4. HR Reporting Uses
• Monitoring- Regular reporting enables HR to keep a finger on the pulse of the
organization by tracking key workforce metrics. New trends and opportunities
can be spotted early on and emerging problems can be addressed before they
significantly impact the business.
• Information Management-An HR report can also help managers in doing their
job better. An HR report can inform managers about relevant developments in
their teams and department. When, for example, the marketing department
struggles with high turnover and a high time-to-hire, managers will be more
likely to put emphasis on retaining employees and will be aware of risks like
longer replacement times when someone is about to leave.
• Identify Problems-HR reporting also offers a great way to track key problem
areas in a transparent way. Transparency in turnover rates per manager will
encourage them to pay closer attention to retaining employees because their
own reputation is on the line! By tracking problem areas, HR can leverage its
position to drive improvements.

Having an active HR Dashboard and management

the wrong direction.
