To avoid falling into costly potholes along the road to building the most engaged, diverse and qualified workforce possible (read: the best), we’ve compiled a slew of helpful HR statistics.

HR professionals can use many methods for assessing problems that might be holding them back. It is highly recommended that HR professionals keep a finger on the pulse of workplace morale via pulse surveys (a survey of a company’s employees to better gauge and evaluate their satisfaction, productivity and overall attitude).

These statistics provide an excellent starting point for improving HR processes as well as providing some statistical support to help HR professionals make the business case to buy HR software in 2019. Be sure to make an HR business case so that you can obtain the budget to boost recruiting efforts, increase retention rates, and provide employee recognition.
