HR analytics and reporting FAQs

An HR report is a document or file that organises and analyses your HR metrics and information in a way that makes it easy to understand. It should offer an effective summary of your HR activity, performance, and achievements. The report compiles key insights, as well as highlighting trends so that you can analyse and draw conclusions from the data.

An HR board report is a great way to showcase and analyse your HR related metrics. This report should cover HR analytics and information related to a combination of both immediate, reactive business priorities, and critical, longer-term core issues, such as succession planning and leadership development.

There are many different HR metrics to consider, including workforce headcount, staff turnover, cost per hire, salary and performance reviews, development spend, and return on investment. You might also want to cover information on things like market trends, best practice, staff benefits (cost vs. value), corporate social responsibility, and equality, diversity, and inclusion.

The data and insights shared in an HR report should tie in with the OKRs, KPIs, and goals set by your organisation for the year, or review period in question.

Good HR reporting software makes it easy for you to pull a range of different HR analytics and reports. These can be tailored to cover your current and long term business objectives as well as the priorities of your board.

HR reporting is crucial for businesses. It provides a roadmap of what's working and what's not, in relation to a range of core people and business strategies. 

Effective HR analytics and reporting software generates actionable reports, helping business leaders and managers monitor factors such as employee performance, retention, hiring strategies, and much more. Plus you can identify areas where improvements could be made.
