All of these questions translate to dollars. If your employees are not satisfied you will have high turnover and high turnover equals dollars spent on recruiting, lost productivity, training, familiarizing the employee, and service concerns. If your Human Resources department is bombarded by the same requests time and time again then it is clear that a solution should be automated and published where your employees expect to find it--the intranet. Imagine the time saved when employees can help themselves without needing assistance from another employee; that’s TWO employees that are not wasting time and are more productive which we all know equals dollars.
The next question may be what type of information should be published on the Human Resources portion of the intranet website? There are virtually limitless suggestions but here are some common examples:
With this amount of information you could almost have a website entirely devoted to Human Resources and Employment related materials. There is simply so much information that your employees need access to that it’s a shame not to use your corporate intranet site as the key resource for your employees to access HR materials. And what’s even more significant is that the materials are all available 24 hours a day and 7 days a week. A substantial Human Resources presence on the corporate intranet site is clearly important. What other ways can you envision your HR department fully leveraging your intranet so that EVERYONE is more productive?
