“As we work with customers to maintain
regulatory compliance, the message always seems to revolve around reporting
tools,” says Laura Randazzo, Vice President of Compliance with Aurico Reports,
Inc. “HR professionals want evidence of EEOC individualized assessments, proof
of adherence consistency with compliance policies, and global adverse action
history. They want to be able to effectively report background screening
metrics during the ultimate challenge from a regulatory agency’s audit.”
The capture of talent acquisition data is
fundamental to talent acquisition performance and productivity. It is key to
making hiring decisions that mitigate corporate risk and drive operational
success. The five reporting tool essentials include:
Business Intelligence
Reporting tools should meet every user where they
are, without changing the way they work. Whether their business is small,
medium, or enterprise size, they should have quick access to consolidated information
to support HR planning, budgeting, forecasting, and performance. Reports
should provide benchmarks needed to control costs, evaluate the effectiveness
of a corporate talent acquisition program, and validate the use of compliance
and industry best practices.
Timely Answers
Best in class reporting tools make background
screening raw data meaningful by translating it into useful information and giving
answers in real time. Using a cloud based solution increases speed to answers,
enabling the generation of reports from a browser, tablet, smartphone, and/or
universal operating system anytime and anywhere. The speed and flexibility
offered by dynamic reporting pays huge dividends when an HR team is called upon
to provide data about candidates, spend, and regulatory compliance.
Create Ad Hoc Reports
Metric-minded HR professionals want robust
and flexible reporting tools on the fly, as opposed to hard coded pre-developed
reports that may cost additional investment and time when a change is needed.
Therefore, reports should be easy to create and require minimal training or IT
support. The best hiring decisions arise from analytical insight derived from
tracking and manipulating screening events and results.
Detailed Snapshot
Delivery of information in a cohesive format
provides stronger decision making value. Rapid visualization and graphic depiction
within an easy to read and manipulated dashboard, make the use of metrics
easier for the non-technical individual. The ability to manipulate data on
screen, via printout, or within a spreadsheet after download reduces data
complexity and encourages its use.
Data Privacy and Security
There should be limits to the availability of
Personally Identifiable Information and result data within a report. Access
should be locked down at the user, location, product, cost center, subject, or
custom levels, thereby provided on a need to know basis. Technology should be
available to make and monitor strict policies to ensure maximum data privacy
and security.
