Human Resources Information Subsystems

Unlike the accounting information subsystem, the human resources information system (HRIS) was often the last to be installed. Organizations are now realizing that a well designed HRIS can provide tremendous benefits. The HRIS permits all personnel areas to be tied together into an information system. Data from several input sources are integrated to provide needed information for decision making. As the human component of the organization gains greater importance, it is likely that HRIS is going to experience continued growth.
