Abstract

This comprehensive study emphasizes the crucial need for holistic Human Resources (HR) management systems. These systems should ensure transparency, traceability, and alignment with strict regulatory standards, promoting organizational growth. The study highlights the essential role of time and attendance systems in managing hourly employees, ensuring compliance with wage laws and efficient payroll processes. By examining recent legal issues, including class-action lawsuits and key Supreme Court decisions, it illuminates the complex legal framework surrounding HR technology. The study promotes a solution-focused approach, advocating for improvements in data integrity, user interface design, and system interoperability. Additionally, it underlines the importance of including robust reporting and analytics features in time and attendance systems. These suggested strategic changes aim to reduce compliance liabilities, increase productivity, improve data retention practices, and promote a streamlined, legally compliant HR operational framework. This research plays a pivotal role in contributing to the ongoing discourse about enhancing technological infrastructures within Human Resources (HR). It provides insightful perspectives and robust data, serving as a valuable resource for HR professionals, leaders, and decision-makers. The ultimate objective of this study is to attain unparalleled operational excellence and rigorous legal compliance. This not only elevates the standard of HR management systems to new heights but also paves the way for future advancements in this critical field. By fostering a culture of continuous improvement and innovation, this research can inspire the development of more efficient, effective, and legally compliant HR management systems.
