CONCLUSION



There are three web-based that able to help the organization which are web-based employee learning and development, web-based compensation and planning, and web-based occupational safety and health. These systems are helpful in the organization for the operations to ensure that everything is going smoothly. The web-based make the organization easy to do the plans for the employees and the employees able to achieve their objectives.

As the conclusion, HRIS and the web-based are helpful for effective and efficiency of the organization’s operation. This is because the organization has good plans and strategies in order to achieve the organization’s objectives. Besides, the organization must emphasize the learning and development of the employees also the occupational safety and health. Other than that, the compensation and planning is important to ensure that the employees are motivated and retain to the organization and able to achieve the objectives of the organization.

WEB-BASED COMPENSATION AND PLANNING



Based on my understanding, the compensation could be in two form which are in monetary form, for instance the salary and wages for that employer pay to the employees for the job they do according the rules of the organization with standard increases due to the cost of living, merit, and promotion. Other than that, the compensation also can be in other form that offered by the employer to the employees which is non-monetary form for instance health insurance, accidental death insurance, sick leave, vacation pay, and retirement pension plans. This is for to attract and retain the employees in the organization to perform the job effectively and able to achieve the objectives of the organization.

            Web-based compensation and planning include a few things for instance short-term and long-term incentives, merit pay, recognition awards, base pay, and rewards that can give effects to the performance of the employees in the organization. The short-term and long-term incentives are important to the employees because it can attract them to perform the job effectively. For instance, the organization gives salary that suitable with the job, an employee is placed in the salary grade appropriate for her or his job and also the organization plans the development in career planning for the employees. The goals of long-term incentives are to motivate the employees for aligned the performance over periods that more than one year. Other than that, the goal is to align the objectives of employees with the organization’s objectives.

            Next, the merit pay has been use by the organization. From what I have been learned, the merit pay is the pay is based on the performance level. For instance, the good performance of the employee, the higher of increase of merit pay. If the level of the performance of the employee is low, so the level of the merit pay will low.

Recognition awards are low-cost or no-cost awards that are reflective. When the employee perform the job with effectively, the employee will receive the reward that may have little value but it is also affect the psychologically. Rewards are used to attract employees to remain with organization and also to make the employees to perform the job effectively. The system has progressed, the employer has become better to enhance the performance of the employees’ report and align the compensation and benefits the programs to attract and motivate the employees.

WEB-BASED OCCUPATIONAL SAFETY AND HEALTH (OSH)



Based on my understanding, occupational safety and health (OSH) is about concerned with preserving and protecting human and facility resources in the workplace. Every organization should practice and promote OSH to the employees either in small or big organization. OSH includes biological safety, chemical safety, physical safety, fire preparation and environmental protection at the workplace.

Web-based occupational safety and health (OSH) is application or services that resident on a server that is accessible. By this application, the employer and employees easy to access to record anything or accidents that happens at the workplace and the organization not use paper-based anymore.

From what that I have learned, the web-based occupational safety and health (OSH) have given positive and negative effects to the organization and the employees. The positive effects are process becomes systematic and the organization able do the regular reviews. First, the process becomes systematic because the information entry of employees become easy and fast. For instance are training undergone, medical claims and others.

Second, the organization able to do the regular reviews of the information and events that happens in the organization. The web-based occupational safety and health helps the organization get the information is short time. The employer easy to know about the employees and also the employer will give attention to the employees. Therefore, the employees will able to work in the comfortable and good environment also able to achieve the organization’s objectives. 


 While, the negative effects of the web-based occupational safety and health (OSH) are poor quality system and complicated for small organization to implement the system. The poor quality system effect is means that the system is not friendly users. This is because the system is complicated for those who do not have the skill and knowledge about the system. So, they will found that the system is difficult to handle and will not use the system anymore. The Internet connection is important because they need access the system by online through the World Wide Web channel.

Other than that, the negative effect is complicated for small organization to implement the system. This is because the small organization needs to use expert to handle the system. This small organization not affordable to hired the expert in that area. The small organization faced the problem of less of workforce.

       In the conclusion, web-based occupational safety and health is important to every organization for protect the employees.

WEB-BASED EMPLOYEE LEARNING AND DEVELOPMENT



We as a human must think that the learning is very important  because it is for upgrade the skill and knowledge to perform the work effectively. Lifelong learning means the person that learns in order to increase their personal development, either in work or not, covering formal or informal activities in which learning takes place in continuous of time.

The development of employees is emphasizing on individual’s skill, knowledge and attitude (KSA) and motivation for example the increase KSA of the traditional industries to the new technologies that emerged. Besides, the changes in the work in the organization will happen for example from old responsibility to a new responsibility.

Based my understanding web-based employee learning can be say that as electronic learning or e-learning. E-learning means that the learning activity that conducted by internet or by information and communication technologies or ICTs. The learning takes place either by individual or group by through channels online which is the materials are delivered to the learners. Besides, the learning is in easy way and short time.

In my opinion, this system is seen as the good medium to the employees in order to increase the learning and development. Therefore, the productivity of the organization would increases as well as the goals of the organization able to achieve. Besides, the employees would set their objectives align with the organization’s objectives in their career development. So, they will give full of the commitment to the duty and organization and will perform effectively.

Organization such as Hewlett-Packard (HP), Wells Fargo, and VISA International provide access to the web in order to improve their bottom line by reducing turnover costs, retaining talented workers, helping ease employees through merger transitions, and increasing the workforce productivity and morale.

This system gives flexibility of employee to access the web through the Internet at their places for purpose to update the information, to know the details of the organization. We as an employee must able to update the information because it is important for us to ensure the level our career for in case either we should to attend the training program to increase our skill.

In the conclusion, as the employers, they must be allow the employees learn in order to increase the skill so that they able to achieve the organization’s goal. In each organization must provide the learning and development and ensure that every employee get their chances.

HRIS SYSTEMS AND SYSTEMS ARCHITECTURE




HRIS system allows the employer and employees to enter performance data, display and analyze it for over time and use the data as input for both the employee’s personal development plan and the organization’s long-term workforce and succesion plannning. Three basic systems architecture in HRIS are Standalone System Model, Data Warehouse Model and Single Integrated System Model.

1)      Standalone System Model

This system architecture is a most basic model which is each operating unit runs by its own independent system with no integration and no worldwide standard in place. Besides, the Standalone System Model is identify as a Multinational HRIS Model which is useful for large and diversified multinational organization, most of the organizations have grown through acquisition. Next, this system is hard for to do data analysis and there is said that even the most basic headcount reporting becomes difficult.

2)      Data Warehouse Model

This system is common but more advance model than others. In this system, the same of software is use for each operating units. Oracle, SAP and PeopleSoft are the companies that use same system for all their operating units. This is will give advantages to the organization in terms of increasing the resources in order to reduce the cost with the standardized data for instance share knowlegde. Besides, there is good for the organization in dealing with the seller. This system architecture is in an International HRIS Model.

3)      Single Integrated System Model

This system is the most advanced. This system only focused to headquartes and connected with region or country. It has networking of each others and also every regions are mutually linked. The data will update automatic through the organization and data get from the main warehouse. This system identify global model that highly centralized and standardizes which minimized and needs of the local business unit. Other than that, this system HRIS also uses the same of screen worldwide with the appropriate changes follow the languages of the countries. Other than that, global and transnational HRIS Model most commonly have the Single Integrated System Model.

            As the conclusion, these three systems architecture have their own uses which is that could give benefits to the organization’s operation units which is either suitable for multinational, globally, international or transnational models.
