What is Case Management for HR? – Part 3 of 3
Case Management enables the deployment of a tiered service delivery model. Strictly speaking, it pertains to the circled tiers in this illustration; if the employee finds the desired answer or resolution in the Self Service Portal, no Case is created. But Case Management has everything to do with the deployment of a successful Portal, as the knowledge required to make it effective is developed in the context of casework.
According to the CedarCrestone 2010-2011 HR Systems Survey, deployment of an HR Service Center, including a Self Service Portal, significantly increases the number of employees that can be served per HR staff member, often by more than 100%. The #1 recommendation of the 2010 Shared Services Practices Survey Findings is that “The HR help desk is a must… If not already adopted, it must be considered for removing unnecessary costs from HR service delivery, particularly in large and medium sized organizations.”
