Adoption and Impact of Electronic Human Resource Management (E-HRM) in Higher Educational Institutions of Madhya Pradesh: A Comparative Study of Public and Private Universities

Exploring both public and private universities in Madhya Pradesh, this research looks at how E-HRM has been implemented and what effects it has had on faculty and staff. The study used a descriptive and comparative research strategy to evaluate the degree of E-HRM adoption, its impact on HR efficiency, and the difficulties encountered during the adoption process. One hundred thirty-five workers had their quantitative data collected via a cross-sectional survey. Across key functions including e-recruitment, e-selection, e-training, performance assessment, and e-payroll, private universities demonstrate much greater adoption levels of E-HRM practices, according to the research. Human resources effectiveness, openness, administrative burden reduction, and decision-making velocity are all areas where private institutions have seen the most development. Inadequate technological infrastructure, insufficient training, funding limits, and opposition to change are some of the significant issues faced by public institutions. There are statistically significant variations in adoption and influence between the two sorts of institutions, as shown by t-test and ANOVA findings. In order for public universities to fully benefit from E-HRM, the report stresses the need of improving digital infrastructure and staff preparedness. Policymakers, university administrators, and human resources experts may use the results to further digital HR practices in the education sector.
