isolved’s Fourth-Annual HR Leaders Report Finds Misalignment Between Employees and Employers but Opportunities to Find Middle Ground
Today, isolved, the most-trusted human capital management (HCM) partner, published its new report, “Champions of Change: How HR Decision-Makers Are Delivering Employee Experiences That Matter,” detailing the current human resources (HR) landscape. The report found that despite employees’ expectations at work being at an all-time high, 76% of HR decision makers believe their expectations are not out of control. The main reason why is because they think employees deserve a good experience at work according to 53% of HR leaders.
Through data around the state of HR leaders' views on topics like shifting employee expectations, leveraging artificial intelligence (AI) in HR, growing retention challenges and investments in diversity, equity, inclusion and belonging (DEI&B), the report also shines a light on the current status of these critical initiatives and more:
- 65% of HR leaders surveyed think recruitment will be just as difficult, if not more difficult than last year.
- More than a quarter of HR leaders say retaining talent was more difficult over the last year.
- 47% of HR leaders indicate that employee onboarding is the area that AI has its greatest potential to support HR. AI is keeping HR leaders up at night, however, as it was cited as their top personal concern for this year because they fear its impact on their job. Their second biggest personal concern is the ability to invest in their own education.
When HR leaders are able harness current employee expectations to create a better employee experience that retains and attracts top talent, stronger business outcomes follow – creating experiences that matter for both the employer and the employee.
