Prediction of HRIS usage behavior in the company: Towards a conceptual model based on an extension of the technology- organization-environment (TOE) framework

Abstract

This study aims to deepen the understanding of the determinants of Human Resources Information System (HRIS) utilization in organizations. The primary objective is to identify the factors influencing HRIS usage by analyzing the complex interactions among technological, organizational, and environmental dimensions. Drawing on a rich literature review, this research employs an expanded conceptual model based on the Technology-Organization-Environment (TOE) framework and incorporates various theoretical frameworks including the Diffusion of Innovations Theory (DOI), Upper Echelons Theory (UET), Technology Acceptance Model (TAM), Motivational Model (MM), and Task-Technology Fit (TTF) framework. This approach enables a thorough analysis of the factors influencing HRIS utilization.

The literature review results identify several determinant factors, including employees' technological capability, organizational size, top management support, IT infrastructure, and technology provider assistance, all of which significantly impact HRIS utilization in organizations. While the literature review is comprehensive, certain aspects may not have been thoroughly covered. Nevertheless, this research offers important implications for practitioners and researchers in the fields of Human Resource Management (HRM) and Information Systems (IS).

The findings of this study provide valuable insights for organizations seeking to enhance their HRIS usage. By understanding the factors influencing HRIS utilization, organizations can better direct their efforts in adopting and deploying HRIS, which can positively impact their overall performance. This research contributes to the literature by proposing a comprehensive conceptual model for understanding HRIS utilization in organizations. By integrating multiple theoretical frameworks and considering technological, organizational, and environmental dimensions, it offers a holistic approach that better captures the underlying mechanisms of HRIS utilization.
