SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
This book examines the progress made in e-enabling the HR function and the relationship with outsourcing. The editors will review and analyse recent developments in the application of outsourcing and ICT to the HR function and its overall contribution to organizational aims. This text aims to fill the gap in current literature, by providing accessible guidance on how to tackle the e-enablement of the function and on the factors associated with successful outsourcing. There is no single text that adequately deals with this increasingly important problem and which has been recognised by the CIPD as a key area of research for their forward programme. The contributors all have leading-edge knowledge and practical experience and aim to provide practical guidance for organizations and HR professionals. * New Book within the Advanced HR Series * Practical case studies illustrating the developments in the application of outsourcing and ICT to the HR function. * Incorporates a new survey of thinking and practice on the future of the HR profession.
