In today’s world of globalization, a new concept of Human resource outsourcing is coined so as to reduce the complexities of handling day to day human resource issues in more accurate and other hand it helps an organization can focus on its core business
Whatever your company's human resources requirements, there's an HR outsourcing firm out there to meet those needs. Some HR outsourcing firms are generalists, offering a wide variety of services, while others are specialists, focusing on specific areas such as payroll or recruiting. Depending on the size of your business and how much control you want to maintain over HR functions, you can either outsource all your HR tasks or contract for services a la carte.

Businesses that outsource HR are typically small-to-midsize firms with between 25 and 1,500 employees. These businesses view HR outsourcing as a strategic tool that relieves them of HR responsibilities and enables them to focus on what they do best. In addition to allowing you to concentrate on your core business activities, outsourcing provides some key benefits, including:
· Providing you with skilled professionals who are focused specifically on HR

If you need to hand off the entire HR function, consider a professional employer organization (PEO). A PEO becomes the employer of record, handling employee relations, payroll, benefits, workers' compensation, and all the other areas that fall under the HR umbrella, while you manage the employee's everyday business responsibilities. In India the concept of Professional Employer Organization (PEO) is better known as Contract Staffing.
If you don't need the comprehensive services of a PEO, you can contract specific projects through an HR outsourcing firm to help you:
· Implement a human resource information system (HRIS)
· Create or update employee handbooks and policy manuals
· Develop and implement a compensation program
· Create or review a performance appraisal system
· Write and update affirmative action plans

This is nonsence. No such outsorucing business is viable proposition because many fraud outsourcing agents have cheated companeis by not depositing cheques to PF, ESIC and misappropriations of employee's money by entering fake names in annual returns and absconding by claiming PF deposit showing amount against their names.
There is no check and balances on the activities of such agents and they duped many companies.

Mr. Rashid,
I think you have not updated yourself to the scenario. Outsourcing business is booming. If you think that way, then what are CAPGEMINI, CTS, HEXAWARE, and of course the company above are doing? They don't invest to run away. You may have a bitter experience because of lack of your investigation on that particular company.
It is because of this preconceived notion that your company would be slightly behind (if not very much) the pace of the growth of technology and processes.
Outsourcing will take over a lot of activity in almost every company. There is always a need, for example, Indian companies have auditors who are CAs outside their organization; this is also some kind of outsourcing. The data center used for this CITEHR could be somewhere in SIFY, IBM, HCL, HP; there are lots of options. Boss, you need to have a broad mind and have the capacity to analyze things before commenting on a company rather than an industry.
I am open to arguments if you have any, as it would increase my knowledge on outsourcing.

Abdul

Dubai, for example, has outsourced most of the major activities of the nation to the US and Europe. Please check the websites of Dubai.gov. If not, then to India, since they trust them more than themselves. For me, India is the best, and the US and Europe are what you mentioned for outsourcing. This is business information.

Hi [atahirswiss](http://citehr.com) (link updated to site home) ([Search On Cite](https://www.citehr.com/results.php?q=atahirswiss) | [Search On Google](https://www.google.com/search?q=atahirswiss)),
Your information is incorrect. These companies you mentioned are involved in other forms of outsourcing, not HR services outsourcing. HR services require personal contact, and in situations where employees are not working on desktops, relying solely on outsourcing may not be effective. Employees often need to approach HR directly for their grievances, and if HR consistently refers them to outsourcing companies, it could lead to chaos.
Furthermore, this concept may be more applicable in the IT sector where most individuals work on desktops.

Hi Abdul,
Thank you for the valuable information. However, the individuals I have mentioned are my competitors. Therefore, I have gathered some information about the mentioned companies. These companies are quite significant, as only top companies outsource to them and maintain confidentiality most of the time. It's worth noting that these companies are not solely focused on HR; some also handle financial transactions (e.g., HP), entire finance, IT, and web development. HR business is just one aspect of their operations.
I recommend visiting their websites. It would be beneficial for you to explore the websites of Polaris and Hexaware, as they provide detailed information.
Please feel free to correct me if I have misunderstood anything in our discussion.

Dear,
HR outsourcing is a process in which a company uses the services of a third party to take care of its HR functions. A company may outsource a few or all of its HR-related activities to a single or combination of service providers located in offshore destinations like India, China, Philippines, etc.
In this sense, the HR outsourcing service-providing firms or HR outsourcing companies can be divided into four categories depending on the services they offer: PEOs (professional employer organizations), BPOs (business process organizations), ASPs (application service providers), or e-services. In these categories, the PEOs are the ones that assume full responsibility for a company's HR functions, whereas others such as BPOs, ASPs, and e-services provide web-based HR solutions like database maintenance, HR data warehousing, maintaining records, developing and maintaining HR software, etc.

Dear all,
Human resource, or rather Human Relations (HR), activities should not be considered similar to IT, Marketing, or other related activities of an organization. All of us as HR professionals should understand that wherever humans are involved, human values are present – be it in an organization, family, friends, etc., there is HR. In fact, an organization is only an extension or a modified form of a family. Just like in a family where everything cannot be done solely within the family (by parents), some things have to be obtained from outside, similarly in an organization, all activities cannot be done internally and have to be outsourced. The question then arises as to what should be done within the organization and what should be outsourced. To answer this, we should understand and realize that activities requiring expertise or a higher level of professionalism are outsourced (similar to seeking treatment from doctors for a child), whereas activities that are manageable or should be managed within the organization should be kept internal (like parental care, ethics, and values). By comprehending this as HR professionals, and by making management understand, formulating policies, and implementing them within the organization, I am confident that significant and satisfying changes will occur.

Dear All,
If there is capability in-house to build strong HR practices, then in such cases companies won't think of outsourcing. People look for outsourcing as an option when it is too much of a hassle or cost involved in setting up the entire HR system and processes in-house. Rather, they would like to outsource a part or whole to the experts outside who have their own infrastructure and expertise and can cater to the company's requirements quickly and economically.
Of course, recruitment outsourcing and background verification have long been popular, but nowadays, as the original post suggests, there are a lot of generalist or specific services that can be provided by an outsourcing partner while maintaining confidentiality. HR is a support function, and whether that support can be given in-house or through some external source should not matter as long as prompt service can be provided and data confidentiality is maintained.
Covid has already broken all conventional norms, so it's just a matter of time for you to accept HR outsourcing as a good proposition. To all HR professionals, I would like to say that HR outsourcing is not a threat to your job. Rather than being stuck to a single company, if you join an HR outsourcing firm, you can cater to multiple clients from various industries and enrich your experience. That will be far more challenging.
