Strategic HR
Artificial Intelligence (AI) has the potential to disrupt the HR function as we know it. New research from XpertHR explores how organisations in the UK are adapting to advancements in AI technologies and the approaches to AI that have been adopted.
The 22nd annual XpertHR survey on HR roles and responsibilities explores how the profession is evolving with respect to job roles, capabilities and responsibilities. It also provides key metrics to understand the composition of the function across responding organisations.
XpertHR looks at the changing strategic focus for employee benefits packages, noting which are the most popular and how organisations involve employees in their benefits' choices.
We look at some of the less common benefits and allowances offered by organisations, including perks such as long-service awards, staff discount schemes and paid volunteering days.
The 21st annual XpertHR survey of the HR function reports on key metrics for the profession, including trends in the ratio of HR practitioners to employees, as well as key priorities for the year ahead and where HR is spending its time.
HR is anticipating another challenging year as they play a key role in protecting the business in uncertain economic times by ensuring the right people are in the right roles, while also supporting employees sustainably through the cost-of-living crisis.
Pay settlements have risen to their highest levels for 30 years, but most still fall short of inflation. We look at how the pressure on living standards caused by the cost-of-living crisis means employers are looking at other levers to support employees.
With the end of the year fast approaching, we examine how organisations are going to mark the occasion for employees.
Most employees will be offered a package of different benefits and allowances to augment their salary. We look at some of the less common offerings away from pensions, health and travel perks.
The majority of organisations surveyed by XpertHR have at least some employees working on a hybrid basis. We report on the progress of these new arrangements, the successes and benefits to organisations, as well as how HR is working to overcome remaining challenges.
