Human Resources (HR) automation is not a new concept. Yet the HR department still relies heavily on labor-intensive processes, which are costly and inefficient and often result in high error rates. To make the department more human, companies are embracing robotic process automation (RPA), which lets robots perform administrative tasks such as employee onboarding, talent acquisition, and performance management. RPA in HR can handle all repetitive tasks and interact with existing internal applications and systems at a user level.
Use Cases of RPA in Human Resources
Resume Screening
RPA bots screen resumes and compares the employee information with job requisitions to shortlist the best candidates and send notifications for interviews, feedback, or rejections.
Offer Letters
RPA bots can create customized and accurate offer letters as they can cross-check from various rules and regulations saved in disparate systems inside and outside of the company.
New Hire Onboarding
RPA bots assist humans by performing mundane tasks like creating a new user account, email address, etc. Once the account is created, a predefined onboarding workflow can automate most of the work.
Training and Induction
RPA significantly improves training effectiveness by interacting with existing eLearning portals and sending automatic notifications for completing certifications.
Reporting and Analysis
RPA bots can assist in regular reporting needs for predictive and prescriptive HR analysis. They can also automatically screen internal and external company reviews and surveys.
Time/Attendance Tracking
RPA bots can validate records by cross-checking attendance and time with data between absentee reports and the time logged in the company network. The bots can flag any inconsistency or missing info.
Exit Management
RPA bots ensure an organized off-boarding process by automating some tasks, including generating exit documents, sending exit surveys, revoking system access, processing final payments, collecting the company’s assets, etc.
Monthly Payroll
RPA bots come in handy to automatically track and produce accurate benefits (awards/reimbursements), invoice reconciliation reports, and update the procurement system with transfers, new hires, and terminations.
