Abstract

Human Resource Information Systems (HRIS) has emerged as one of the drivers of competitive advantage and strategic decision making tool in many private enterprises. Many global organizations are using HRIS to build their competitive advantage. The practices of HRIS in private sector enterprises in Bangladesh are gradually increasing. This study has been conducted on 104 respondents of 25 private organizations in Bangladesh. 52.88 percent respondents have reported moderate level of HRIS practices in their organizations relative to higher level of HRIS practices reported by 47.16 percent respondents. Thus, the study reveals that the practices of HRIS in private enterprises in Bangladesh are moderate. Although 85 percent respondents have mentioned that their organizations make important strategic decisions by using HRIS, they still require improvements in HRIS practices to gain competitive advantage. 93.26% respondents believed that HRIS is important for both public and private firms to gain competitiveness. This study will also contribute to the existing literature of HRIS and promote the concern about strategic importance of practicing HRIS in both private and public enterprises in Bangladesh.
