HR outsourcing refers to the complete or partial outsourcing of HR processes to external service providers. Outsourcing saves companies a lot of work. Since the respective service providers are specialized in certain processes, costs can also be reduced.
HR processes that are often outsourced by companies are, for example, recruiting, payroll accounting and performance appraisals.
HR outsourcing undoubtedly offers some advantages, but there are also disadvantages. If you want to save time and costs, but at the same time keep control over your HR processes yourself, you should consider implementing HR software.
With suitable HR software, you can digitize numerous administrative processes such as time recording, personnel files, leave planning or payroll accounting. If you reduce the workload for routine tasks, you simultaneously give your HR managers more time for strategic tasks. In this way, the changeover is worthwhile without outsourcing any processes. In addition, you increase the satisfaction of your employees and avoid mistakes if the software also has an Employee Self Service (ESS).
When you work with HR software, there is no need for the high communication costs that would arise from outsourcing. Your company defines all processes itself so that they are individually adapted to your needs, and you create 100% transparency for your HR department and employees.
Some packages can be canceled on a monthly basis, so you are not dependent on the HR software provider. A customer access manager can also assist with data import to ensure a smooth implementation. With kiwiHR, there are no implementation costs: the prices are transparent.
