Abstract

This study examines the influence of human resource information systems on effective decision-making in local government authorities in Hanang District. Specifically, the study aims to assess the effect of HRIS usefulness, HRIS attitude, HRIS ease of use and HRIS trust on organizational decision-making at Hanang District council. The study followed a positivistic research paradigm. In this study, 344 questionnaires were distributed to employees using a stratified sampling technique. The collected data were analyzed using multiple linear regression analysis. The results indicate that perceived HRIS usefulness positively influenced organizational decision-making at Hanang District Council. The findings show that perceived attitude was statistically significant in influencing organizational decision-making. Furthermore, the results highlight a positive influence of perceived HRIS ease of use on organizational decision-making. Moreover, the study found a statistically significant and negative influence of perceived HRIS trust on organizational decision-making. Therefore, this study recommends that the council continue to promote and enhance the perceived usefulness of HRIS among employees to improve decision-making processes and ultimately achieve organizational goals more efficiently. Also, the council should provide adequate resources and support to employees to enhance decision-making processes using HRIS. Policy makers should encourage the adoption of HRIS in organizations to improve decision-making processes and ultimately achieve organizational goals more efficiently. The study adds to the existing body of knowledge on the impact of HRIS on decision-making in organizations. Keywords: Human Resource Information System, Decision making, Local Government Authorities, Hanang District Council, Decision Making.
