8. Analytics
• Business Intelligence/Data Warehousing and
Analytics - used to understand trends/patterns
in data and gather information about behaviour
and causal relationships.
• Analytics comes in various shapes, forms and
sizes – some of the most popular forms are
the dashboards and scorecards.

9. Dashboards vs Scorecards
• An HR dashboard like the dials in a vehicle
dashboard can provide information for
example about :
• total employee count
• how many reported to work today
• the total absentee count
• how many unplanned absentees there are among
them etc.
• However, it does not provide the user with
necessary information to arrive at a
Free Powerpoint Templates
conclusion. Page 9
10. Dashboards vs Scorecards
• A Scorecard uses a set of pre-defined rules and
metrics to determine the state of health of a
company.
• For example : If the attrition rate goes above 8% it
shows as red in the scorecard prompting the user to
take action.
• Some leading vendors have analytic applications that
come packaged with predefined metrics, database
models and reports that make the implementation of
analytic solutions easier..

11. Example of Analytic Workflow
A typical analytic work flow starts with a prompt
like the scorecard turning red for more than
allowable attrition rates.
In the previous example, to illustrate the analytic
workflow, the user starts with the scorecard, then
drills down to the next level to see that most of the
people quitting belong to a certain department and
a project.
Upon further analysis it is apparent that most of
the people who have quit in the past couple of
weeks have been working long hours for
several months and thus had very low morale.
The project has been running over budget and
beyond expected deadline.
To arrest the attrition the Manager takes action
to either shut thePowerpoint Templates more
Free project down or add
people to the project to help close it. Page 11
12. Insightful information at a glance
• Advanced visualization available ensures that users
do not have pore over pages of reports as in the past
• With just a glance of heat map, the user can
understand how productive employees are across
geographies (example: countries or regions) or
across departments.
• Helps immediately pick out areas of concern and
take corrective actions.

16. Workforce Intelligence – Understanding the
Evolution
Analytics Description
Descriptive Those which summarize and compare operational and/or financial data on key workforce variables within
Reporting defined timeframes.
Examples: totals, averages, percentages and trends. These are used primarily to create lagging indicators
Retrospective Those which apply one or two internal data sources to derive useful information.
Analytics
Example: The past education experience of job candidates is compared to job performance during the first
year of employment.
These are used to create both lagging indicators, performance benchmarks and insights.
Predictive Mathematical models that use multiple internal and external data sources to predict future
Analytics workforce events.
Example: A predictive model that uses internal and external employee level data to predict
the likelihood that a particular employee will resign in the next six months and supply the
reasons for the prediction
These are used to create leading indicators and focus limited resources on small segments of
the employee population where the impact is likely to create the greatest benefit.

17. What is Predictive Modeling?
– Predictive analytics uses available internal
and external data to predict future events at
the customer or employee level.
– Value is created by focusing limited
resources on the right customers/employees
at the right time resulting in improved
outcomes.

18. WHAT-IF Analysis
• Predictive modeling techniques can be applied on top
of analytic tools to perform „WHAT-IF?” analysis to
help even predict what the future may have in hold.
• For example while designing a hiring campaign the
HR manager can adjust the various knobs and levers
like acceptance rate, education level, compensation,
etc which will not only help him design the campaign
but also can tell him the rate of head count growth
and thus allowing him Powerpoint Templates future.

22. System aspects
• BI tools nowadays have prebuilt dashboard pages which have
prebuilt interface to Tier 1 ERP applications.
• The Analytics suite could be implemented in about 6 to 8
weeks for an organization with 1000 employees.
• Emerging trends in Talent management which includes
performance and goal management, Talent review process
(9 box grid), workforce predictions, succession planning are
available in some of these applications.
• Talent management with embedded analytics is being
implemented by global organizations through a cloud model
(SaaS), where customer can utilize the service Pay as you
use model. There is no need to buy licenses and minimal
implementation effort is involved.

36. Compensation
Average income per employee
• This would help us evaluate how the average income of our company compares with the
market standards. We could group it with Position/Job/Performance bands for comparison
with market standards.
Comparative Ratio
• Compa ratio describes the individual's position in the pay range against the pay policy
reference point for the range and can be used to reposition an individual's pay in the range if it
is too high or low.
Compensation as percentage of Sales
• Helps compare compensation across departments with their sales output thereby ensuring
that the high performing departments are suitably rewarded.
Variable pay as percentage of compensation
• This helps us in knowing the variable component (commissions) paid as a percentage of the
total compensation.
Over Time Pay as percentage of compensation
• This will indicate the Overtime efforts put in, and combined with the sales KPI could indicate
under staffing in particular departments.

37. Attrition
Employee turnover percentage
This KPI would indicate whether the total terminations have improved/worsened or within permissible limits.
Merging it would other tradition KPIs like Sales output of a department would help us understand the how the
productivity is affected by these terminations.
Voluntary turnover percentage
Voluntary terminations refer to those initiated by the employees, these kinds of terminations harms the
Organization.
Involuntary turnover percentage
Involuntary terminations refer to those initiated by the Organization. This could be coupled with other traditional
KPIs to improve recruiting procedures and minimize involuntary terminations.
Average period of service of employees who resign
This KPI helps us understand service bands of the employees leaving the organization and plan the replacements
accordingly. Suitable retention plans can be developed improved if we know which category of people we are at a
higher risk of losing.
Top Performer Voluntary turnover
Losing top performer is always a concern. Knowing the top performers and the reasons/department/supervisor we
have lost them will help prevent such cases in the future.
Productivity turnover rate per department
This coupled with the turnover rate will help us understand the loss of productivity caused due to terminations.

38. Performance
Sales turnover
• This KPI will indicate if the sales turnover has been in an uptrend or downtrend.
Sales turnover per employee
• This KPI will help us understand the top performing departments. A higher value is always
preferable but it could also indicate under staffing in certain scenarios.
Profit per employee
• This KPI will be quite similar to the one mentioned above, but it will help us locate areas
where higher sales is not translating to higher profits. It possibly indicates higher
expenditure which needs to be controlled.
Administration cost per employee
• This KPI will reveal a major expense namely labour cost involved. A combination of all
these KPIs will reveal if the employees of high performing departments are suitable
rewarded.
Labour cost as percentage of sales
• This KPI shows the labour cost as a percentage of sales.

39. Retention
At Risk top performer count
• It’s important to know the top performers whom we are at a risk of losing. The KPI will be
calculated based on the values of compa ratio and performance ratings of an employee.
Percentage Average Satisfaction
• This KPI will indicate if employees are satisfied with the work environment. A detailed
report can be created that help us find the reasons for dissatisfaction if any (work life
balance, overtime hours, compensation etc).
Average increase in compensation
• It will help us understand if employee’s efforts are suitable rewarded in a timely manner.
Training programme enrollments per employee
• It will help us understand if employees are getting a chance to upgrade skills for career
progression, could be an indicator for assessing voluntary turnover.
Overtime Hours
• If the employees have to consistently put in extra efforts to meet the targets, it could be
because of labour constraints. If not fixed appropriately it might lead to voluntary
turnovers. Free Powerpoint Templates

40. Diversity
Contingent worker as a percentage of total workforce
• Indicates the composition of contract workers in the organization.
Full Time workers as a percentage of total workforce
• Indicates the percentage of Full Time workers in the workforce.
Headcount
• Headcount metric could be used with a variety of dimension columns to
understand the diversity in the workforce. To name some -
– Nationality/Ethnicity
– Gender
– Skill
– Educational Qualification
– Age Band
– Service Band
– Performance band Free Powerpoint Templates
