Infrastructure
In the context of HR, "infrastructure" refers to the underlying systems, frameworks, and processes that support the effective management and operation of human resources within an organization. This includes the technology, software, and tools used for human resource management, such as HR information systems (HRIS), payroll systems, performance management software, and recruitment platforms. Additionally, HR infrastructure encompasses organizational policies, procedures, compliance frameworks, and the overall operational environment that facilitates workforce planning, talent acquisition, training and development, employee relations, and performance management. A robust HR infrastructure is essential for ensuring that HR functions efficiently and aligns with the organization's strategic goals, ultimately contributing to improved employee performance and organizational effectiveness.
