Abstract

This paper encloses a brief overview of number of observations on the applications of information technology (IT) in the field of human resource management (HRM) in general. Although the impact of IT on HRM has long been attracting the concern of academics, no pragmatic research has ever been realized in this field in India, and few studies have been reported elsewhere. The survey was conducted among the IT managers and professionals from various sectors, based on those results, the data shows that IT is used widely in the organizations to perform HRM functions in India’s dynamic economy. The results also shown that, while IT has an impact on all sectors in terms of HRM to certain extent, the types of IT used vary significantly between recruitment, maintenance, and development tasks. However, the observed results here disclosed that these organizations are not applying these technologies systematically and wisely in the performance of HRM functions.
