Hi Leena,
Thanks for the valuable information. Can you please let me also know
how do you set the KPIs for certain areas that are not measurable.
For Example: The KRA is Implementation of HR Process & Policies - what would be the KPI for this KRA?
Expecting your reply.

There are plenty of KPIs available for each department but the real value and importance for any organization is in selecting the right set of KPIs for individual functions. KPIs help in ascertaining the health of an organization and assist the top management in keeping a finger on the pulse of the organization.

When looking to fine-tune performance, determining metrics such as time spent on a page, the keywords used to deliver the traffic, which related keywords are relevant and overlapping. Determining the existing bounce rate or engagement metric for the page and what calls to action exists on the landing page in question.
Managing those factors allow you to create a base-level KPI analysis to improve performance individually or across all of these metrics simultaneously. However, without analytics or performance tracking, you are just grasping straws when it comes to delivering or reproducing consistent or future sales volume.

Unfortunately, huge lists of KPIs are useless. In particular such KPIs like turnover or time to hire cannot be used. I\'ve discussed this in my articles.
Basically, what we deal with in KPIs overload. Here my thoughts on how one could design better HR KPIs: http://www.bscdesigner.com/hr-kpi-excessive-measurement.htm

Hi, Sfkmujahid!
Here is a long article with HR KPIs: KPIs for HR produce the excessive measurement problem that will give you an idea about what HR KPIs you should and should not use and why.
Be ware of long lists of HR KPIs, they have nothing to do with actual performance management, they are just measure that are not aligned with any expected result.

I agree with SANGEETHA_07 above, just presenting a list of KPI's is not a very effective way to answer this question. I would go further, even a list of KPIs with descriptions is not going to help.
There is no substitute for doing the job properly. KPIs should be specific to the needs of the company, division or department. In this case, applying a bunch of standard HR KPIs will not be effective. The work needs to be done to determine what the Objectives of the HR department are and only then describe how the success of the objectives will be measured through the use of KPIs.
This process fully described in the white paper "Developing Meaningful Key Performance Indicators" which can be found at www.intrafocus.com/key-performance-indicators
