Abstract
BACKGROUND: Nowadays organizations have made their human resource management process more strategic and serve as a strategic tool for achieving competitive advantage for the organization with the development of electronic-Human Resource Management (e-HRM) Systems. To measure e-HRM system acceptance for performing various HR functions of an organization, especially the HR department, a perception model for acceptance of e-HRM systems in IT and Non-IT organizations has been developed in this research paper. OBJECTIVE: The objective of the study is to derive an acceptance model that can predict the acceptability and the factors affecting the acceptance of e-HRM systems in IT and Non-IT organizations. For this purpose, an electronic-survey-based questionnaire with a set of questions with categorical response options has been developed and the responses collected through this questionnaire are eligible to measure the acceptance level with effectiveness and usefulness of the e-HRM systems by IT and Non-IT business organizations. METHODS: Here, the questionnaire has 22 parameters. During data collection, 400 samples are obtained from 20 IT and 20 Non-IT (other services) organizations where ten employees from each organization participated in the survey. For the Data analysis for the acceptance model and also for testing of the hypothesis, several statistical-based data analysis techniques such as Data Reliability, Cross Tabulation, Normality test, Correlation ∖& Regression-based analysis, Factor Analysis, along with Pearson Chi-Square, Mann-Whitney U, Wilcoxon W for hypothetical testings are done. Apart from these criteria, using the data analysis techniques, a well-known technology acceptance model for the e-HRM system has also been employed to test with variables of the proposed questionnaire for the acceptance of e-HRM systems. RESULTS: All the statistical tests and testing of hypotheses are done in a sequential manner for comparison purposes of factors that affect e-HRM systems in IT and Non-IT organizations. The results are reported in detail with explanations and justifications. CONCLUSION: The results of the data analyses can be concluded with finding and discussing that the acceptability of e-HRM systems by the end users in IT firms is much higher than in other service organizations because of the significant difference in presence of external factors, perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use, user attitude, and behavior between the IT and Non-IT groups of organizations.
期刊介绍:
Human Systems Management (HSM) is an interdisciplinary, international, refereed journal, offering applicable, scientific insight into reinventing business, civil-society and government organizations, through the sustainable development of high-technology processes and structures. Adhering to the highest civic, ethical and moral ideals, the journal promotes the emerging anthropocentric-sociocentric paradigm of societal human systems, rather than the pervasively mechanistic and organismic or medieval corporatism views of humankind’s recent past. Intentionality and scope Their management autonomy, capability, culture, mastery, processes, purposefulness, skills, structure and technology often determine which human organizations truly are societal systems, while others are not. HSM seeks to help transform human organizations into true societal systems, free of bureaucratic ills, along two essential, inseparable, yet complementary aspects of modern management: a) the management of societal human systems: the mastery, science and technology of management, including self management, striving for strategic, business and functional effectiveness, efficiency and productivity, through high quality and high technology, i.e., the capabilities and competences that only truly societal human systems create and use, and b) the societal human systems management: the enabling of human beings to form creative teams, communities and societies through autonomy, mastery and purposefulness, on both a personal and a collegial level, while catalyzing people’s creative, inventive and innovative potential, as people participate in corporate-, business- and functional-level decisions. Appreciably large is the gulf between the innovative ideas that world-class societal human systems create and use, and what some conventional business journals offer. The latter often pertain to already refuted practices, while outmoded business-school curricula reinforce this problematic situation.
