HR Tech Stack

An HR tech stack is the collection of applications and integrations an organisation uses for HR work. It describes how systems support the employee lifecycle and exchange information.

Example

A company's stack includes recruitment software, an HR information system, payroll and a learning platform, with employee identifiers connecting records between them.

What to keep in mind

Document which application is the source of truth for each field. Duplicate records and poorly controlled integrations can create inconsistent pay, access permissions or reporting results.
