Description:
Human resource information systems (HRIS) are an information systems used to "acquire, store, manipulate, analyze, retrieve, and distribute information regarding an organization's human resources" (Kavanagh & Johnson, 2017, p. 8). Because these systems store and use about applicants, employees, and other stakeholders, they have the potential to affect employee communication, work processes, HR practices, and outcomes. In addition, social media tools are increasingly being used by organizations and employees to support work and to make employment decisions. Therefore, it is important to develop theories and research regarding the design and use of these systems, and how they may affect personal and organizational effectiveness.
