Abstract

In this paper, we aim to explore the effect of information technology on HRM functions, examining the absorption of the e-HRM system by employees in the new working context. The research is a case study in a group of companies, the “Biomedicine Group†in Greece, specialized in the healthcare sector. Quantitative research was conducted with a stratified sample consisting of 200 employees out of 2000 doctors, nurses and administrative employees. The study found that the e-HRM system had a positive impact on organizational outcomes, enhancing HRM functions. Moreover, it demonstrates both the usage of the e-HRM system by employees and the usefulness of these systems. The integration and use of an e-HRM system increases employees’ satisfaction, facilitating their work and advancing their capabilities. Managers through specially designed and implemented training programs can promote employees’ sense of qualification and capability within the context of the organization.
