Present Status of E-Human Resource Management Practices and Challenges in Indian Industries

Abstract

Despite the multiple benefits associated with the use of digital technologies in the area of HRM, its adoption is not widespread. The limited resources with the developing and the under-developed nations make E-HRM imperative to reduce the organizations operational costs. But before its successful adoption, the challenges to E-HRM need to be overcome and the way forward should be clear. While India is on the path of embracing digital revolution in all spheres of administration and management, its journey is not smooth as societal, cultural, infrastructural and economical barriers impede E-HRM adoption. In this context the present paper highlights the present status, challenges, and future prospects of e-HRM in India with the purpose of providing a pathway to the policy makers and the organizations regarding the successful adoption and implementation of e-HRM practices in India.
