HRIS systems vary in scope and function. Understanding the five types can help you choose the right fit for your business.
1. Operational HRIS
Handles day-to-day processes like attendance, records, and leave management.
2. Tactical HRIS
Supports recruitment, onboarding, and employee performance tracking.
3. Strategic HRIS
Focuses on analytics, long-term planning, and workforce forecasting.
4. Comprehensive HRIS
A hybrid system that includes operational, tactical, and strategic tools (like RBetach).
5. Limited Function HRIS
Narrow systems often used by microbusinesses for a single purpose (e.g., payroll only).
