Hi Sruti,
Statistics are widely used in HR in many areas. The following are the ones which I can remember offhand. I hope other members join me in completing the list:
1. Compensation survey
2. Performance management
3. Employee Satisfaction Survey
4. Training feedback evaluation
Apart from these, statistics can be applied wherever quantitative analysis needs to be done, such as in the case of MIS reports for HR.

Hi Sruti,
In addition to Anuradha's points, I would like to add that statistics is applicable in HR in the following areas:
1) Operational Research Techniques in HR
2) Human Resource Accounting
3) Acquisitions, Mergers, Restructuring, and Downsizing (Placement, Best Mix)
4) Collective Bargaining (Management's Charter of Demand)
5) HR Budgeting

Hi,
I guess to measure the effectiveness of the HR department, most of the issues are data-based, whether it is training, manpower, performance appraisal, QC circles, 5S policy, Kaizen, MUDAS, etc. So we can't say that now HR is not data-based. Management sees the results of the HR department, and like any other department, management wants the HR department to be ready with data. The reason being, data makes the process of analysis easy, more accurate, and less reliant on history.
