HCM trends to watch in 2022

Previously the often-ignored business unit, human resources departments have experienced a significant increase in attention and concern over the past two years. Business leaders in all industries are beginning to realize the value of investing in their workforce when facing hiring challenges, mass resignations, and general uncertainty. For example, a recent Nucleus case study found that one organization’s HR department was key to keeping the business alive over the course of the pandemic. Nucleus expects all eyes to remain on human capital management (HCM) software providers in areas spanning talent, core HR, and workforce management, reassessing the talent acquisition processes, people and workforce management analytics, on-demand pay, and upskilling as critical trends to watch in 2022.
