HRIS Plus myHR Partner: Maximizing the Power of HR

Written by myHR Partner | Jan 23, 2025 4:13:33 PM

In this fast-paced business world, human resource information systems (HRIS) are invaluable tools for managing employee data, payroll, benefits, performance management, compliance, and more. HRIS platforms streamline administrative processes, but they rely heavily on human input, maintenance, and expertise to function effectively and optimally. That’s where myHR Partner steps in—offering businesses the expertise to outsource the upkeep and oversight of the data and processes, while bringing our strategic expertise to the table to unlock the full potential of their HRIS systems.

HRIS Systems: Capabilities and Gaps

HRIS platforms are designed to centralize HR data and automate processes, making them an essential component for modern HR teams. However, their effectiveness is limited without ongoing maintenance and strategic oversight. For example:

  • An HRIS can track PTO balances, but the correct PTO policy needs to be assigned to each employee, and often times manual corrections or exceptions are necessary.
  • An HRIS can launch performance reviews, but the form and workflow needs to be set up in accordance with business needs.

As one of our experts, Julie Miller, Senior HR Manager, explains, “An HRIS is only a platform. While it simplifies HR tasks, it still requires someone to manage and optimize it according to current regulations and best practices.”
