Changes Afoot for HR: A transition in the way companies provide retirement and
health benefits is prompting many companies to “reconsider the way they deliver
human resources services,” by engaging employees and making administration more
efficient through technology, according to Watson Wyatt Worldwide. One in five
companies surveyed say they plan to revamp HR delivery
in the coming year. HR portals and ERP systems are cited as the most popular
