What is HRIS (Human Resources Information System)
An HRIS is your single source of truth for all employee data. It’s the foundational software that centralizes everything from employee profiles and contracts to time-off tracking and org charts. For a regulated company, the choice of an HRIS is a major security decision. A system that you host on your own servers (on-premise) gives you ultimate control over who sees what, ensuring your sensitive people data is shielded from external threats and ready for an audit at a moment's notice.
