The mission of corporate human resource departments is to add value, make organizations more competitive, and help firms achieve business objectives. Human resources' metrics communicate the value added by human resources, demonstrate the contribution made by human capital, and measure employment-related risks.

To become a strategic partner, HR professionals need to speak the language of business. Inherent in that language is the lexicon of business measurements and metrics ─ including HR metrics.

  • Discusses the use of HR metrics as a core competency
  • Reviews the role HR metrics play in helping organizations make critical business decisions
  • Describes the calculation of employment practices liability risk exposure
