Increased HR outsourcing delivers busy departments administrative, strategic helpA Story by Codeares Global IT SolutionsMore HR professionals reported outsourcing tasks to vendors in 2022 than in 2021, according to the results of HR Dive's 2nd annual Identity of HR Survey.Reports of service vendor use rose
in nearly every category. Payroll processing saw the largest year-over-year
jump; 61% of respondents said they used such vendors in 2022, while 53% said so
in 2021. Staffing companies commanded the next largest increase, followed by
executive recruiters and benefits outsourcing/consultants. D&I consultants
was the only area that saw a decline. Percent of respondents that IT
Outsourcing Services Company HR functions year over year The uptick in outsourcing raises a
question about the state of HR: Why are HR departments using increased vendor
support? Widespread outsourcing could signal
shrinking departments: Vendors supply organizations with essential HR functions
that a fully staffed department would normally carry out. Of course, increased
outsourcing could evidence another trend. With fewer administrative tasks, HR
departments equipped with vendor support may assume more strategic work. Or
departments busy with administrative workloads can assign strategic goals to
consultants and experts. To investigate why more HR
departments are soliciting outside help, HR Dive spoke with HR consultant Adam
Calli. Calli said he's observed an uptick in vendor use among his clients, and
he speculated that IT Outsourcing Services Company could stem from
cutbacks or strategy " it just depends on the business. Preserving HR
functions despite cutbacks Employers bringing on vendors may be
supplementing HR departments that shrank due to pandemic cuts, Calli
hypothesized. COVID-19 prompted many companies to lay off workers. The U.S.
Bureau of Labor Statistics recorded a spike in separations between February and
March 2020. While separations returned to normal levels by May, they've been
steadily increasing over the last two years. And HR departments weren’t spared
from these, Calli pointed out. As employers recover, many may
hesitate to add back overhead, positioning outsourcing as a convenient,
temporary solution. "Companies know they still have needs for HR services,
and outsourcing is a good way to fill the gap until they decide to rehire
direct staff," Calli said. While HR Dive's data did not speak
to the relationship between layoffs and vendor use, it revealed patterns
between department size and outsourcing. When categorized by department size,
vendor use responses tended to break down according to the representation of
the sample size. But the data showed a few significant deviations. Total respondents
by department size Departments of 2 to 5 were the most
common. Outsourcing by HR
department size Smaller HR teams were more likely to
outsource HR functions. Relatively more respondents in
departments of 1 to 5 people reported using payroll vendors. The pattern
flipped with outsourcing responses in executive recruiting, D&I consultants
and staffing companies. More respondents in larger departments reported using
those vendors, while fewer " and in several instances far fewer " participants
reported using them in smaller departments. © 2022 Codeares Global IT SolutionsAuthor's Note
