Humans are always viewed as business assets in every organization. Appropriate, and reasonable, human resources must be employed, trained, and valued. Using cutting-edge technology in human resource management, such as artificial intelligence, increases the workforce\'s effectiveness, accountability, and productivity. Additionally, it increases transparency and precision in computing the accounting return on investment from a human resources perspective. Consequently, HR staff may devote more time to developing strategies and making decisions. This paper examines the significance and development of HRM as a new core business. HR\'s evolving function, the perspectives and difficulties of AI-enabled HRM technologies, and more due to technological changes and the way human resource accounting is done. Regardless of size or industry, human capital is the most important resource for any organization\'s development. And it is the responsibility of the HR staff to put HRM plans into practice in order to attract, develop, and support human resources. Despite the fact that many problems can only be solved by human interaction, there is still room for AI in HRM. By utilizing cutting-edge technology, all conventional HR duties were strengthened with greater accuracy, productivity, and transparency, without human intervention. It allows the preparation of progress evaluations, staff communication & performance evaluations. As a result, organizations, senior management, and HR experts may achieve their goals with the help of AI-enabled HR technologies.
Human capital is the collective term for the expertise, experience, knowledge, and skills that members of a population either individually or in groups possess. It is essential to a country's or organization's entire capital, in addition to financial and physical capital. In today's knowledge-based economies, human capital is probably one of the most precious resources.
The notion of human capital, which was formulated by economists such as Gary Becker, highlights the significance of education and training in augmenting an individual's earning capacity and productivity. It implies that long-term economic growth and development can result from investments in human capital.
Businesses and governments frequently make investments in the development of human capital through healthcare initiatives, education and training programmes, and laws that promote a competent and well-trained labour force. In a global economy, economic growth, innovation, and competitiveness can all be facilitated by a highly educated and competent labour force.
Over time, the field of human resource management (HRM) has changed to reflect shifts in society, the workplace, and managerial techniques. The following is a history of HRM:
HRM has developed over time from a largely administrative role to a strategic, people-centred field. It is vital to the development of an organization's culture, talent management, and adherence to labour rules and regulations.
Technological change and human resource management (HRM) go hand in hand because technology has greatly affected HRM operations and procedures. Technology use in HRM has resulted in a number of improvements and adjustments. Here are a few significant ways that technology advancements have impacted HRM:
HRM has evolved from a largely administrative role to a strategic partner within organizations as a result of the usage of technology. Technology has created a lot of data that HR professionals can use in their work while also enhancing efficiency, decision-making, and the entire employee experience. To continue utilizing the advantages of technology in HRM, HR professionals must be flexible and keep up to date on technology developments.
Globalisation affects technological advancement as well as the integration of all organisational procedures, ranging from finance to HR to production. The expanding use of HRM processes based on computers first showed up in the 1980s (Sikula and McKenna), Additionally, the development of personal computers since 1990 created and envisioned human resources Information systems (HRIS): a methodical approach for gathering, keeping, preserving, getting back, and verifying information about the human resources of organisations, Employee actions and unit attributes (Kovach as well as Cathcart Jr. (1999). It is able to simplify and automate crucial HR tasks, like shortlisting and screening employment applications, training, e-learning, and onboarding payroll, analytics and reporting for HR, and performance supervision, etc.
The development of computer science continues to change the role of HRM from being a tool for keeping records to one that supports strategies for making decisions. Thus, current Innovation in technology increases productivity. This includes a strategy for redefining HR positions. The phrase electronic human resource management all HR-related tasks in order to decrease HR and reduce administrative expenses, boost output and effectiveness,They offer chances to carry out more strategic tasks(Dulebohn and Stone, 2013). Therefore, the usabilityof AI-enabled technologies grew quickly across all industries,Covering HRM, and the development of COVID-19 alsohastened the application of it. The effects of technology on theThe most common HR positions are described here.
Modern technology was used to reinforce allstandard HR activities more precisely and productivelyand openness devoid of human prejudice or meddling.It facilitates employee development and performance review, channels for interaction and communication, as well as creatingupdates on progress. Therefore, AI-powered HRsupport HR, upper management, and organisationsspecialists in achieving objectives.The affordability of e-HRM software in India is contingent upon various factors such as the size and nature of the organisation, the quantity of employees, features, and customization available, as well as the initial investment and skill needs.For these reasons, small businesses are hesitant to implement contemporary HR procedures. Refer to Figures 5 and 6 to learn about the AI-enabled HRM systems that are currently available in India, how these technologies transform or support HR tasks, their trust behaviour in relation to market trends, some advice for HR staff, and how some of the intelligence-enabled HRM functions support HRA reports.
Due to the service sector's growing economic impact on the global economy, consideration has turned to the role that talent, knowledge, and skill play in a company's overall expansion. The issue of how to accurately quantify human resources is thus brought up by managing the workforce and viewing it as one of the organisational assets.The act of quantifying an organization's expenditures and gains in its most valuable intangible asset, human capital, is known as human resource accounting, or HRA. It speaks of calculating expenses as an investment comes to pass towards managing human resources (Lau and Lau, 1978)—including screening, hiring, onboarding, learning & development (i.e., as a part of HRM functions) and reporting benefits produced by the same human resources (Flamholtz, Et al., 2002). The costs associated with hiring and retaining employees are shown in the balance sheet as an asset in accordance with the HRA reporting, which is in contrast to Indian accounting practise, which follows Indian accounting standards and treats human resource cost.
Technological advancements like AI, ML, and IoT offer the potential to enhance HRM functions. It helps technology developers, the company, staff, and HR specialists. According to Hempel (2004), there is a relationship between IT and HRM since technology adoption gives developers the chance to create more sophisticated technology while also changing and automating the function of traditional HRM. Large Indian companies choose to manage, value, train, and develop their human resources with tailored E-HRM products. E-HRM software still has certain difficulties, nevertheless, with regard to its application, compliance with laws and regulations, cost-effectiveness, and ability to replace traditional HR practises, particularly in India\'s tiny and disorganised businesses. Separate HR management systems are not necessary, and no entity in India\'s small and unorganised sector even recognises the need for them. Additionally, there is direct communication between the owner and the staff. The outcome was a poor E-HRM adoption ratio. Therefore, it is wise to carefully incorporate current technologies. As a result, it is wise to carefully adopt current technologies. However, the creator of the AI-powered HRM system may easily overcome these obstacles thanks to digital India initiatives and ongoing, rapid advancement. Regarding HRA practise in India, it is not required by accounting standards to quantify, value, and show HR as capital or business assets on the balance sheet. Not even the Companies Act 1956 and 2013 (an act of the Indian parliament) include particulars or guidelines that organisations must adhere to. That being said, there\'s a chance that the combination of intelligence technology and HRM will lead to a rise in HRA in India.
