HR Analytics

Many companies have made significant investments in HR technologies to manage their day-to-day transactions but just a small number of companies use these aggregated terabytes of valuable data to make meaningful data-driven decisions.

However, the situation is changing and a growing number of executive teams are adopting advanced analytical techniques. As part of a broad workforce planning strategy, analytics can be instrumental in creating a more fact-based approach to solving complex workforce issues. Our research shows that companies that are ahead of the game in this area are doubling their improvements in recruiting, tripling their leadership development capabilities, and enjoying 30 percent higher stock prices than their peers.

In Deloitte, we believe that being a step ahead and successfully leveraging analytics and big data is essential for organisations seeking to enhance HR’s role in business decision-making and outperform their peers in executing their talent strategies.
