Frequently Asked Questions
What are the most important HR metrics?
The most important HR metrics for strategic decision-making include: employee turnover rate (voluntary and involuntary), time to fill open positions, offer acceptance rate, employee engagement score, manager effectiveness score, internal promotion rate, absenteeism rate, training completion rate, and performance rating distribution. Advanced organizations add ONA metrics like collaboration breadth and network influence to measure contribution patterns beyond surveys.
What is the difference between HR metrics and people analytics?
HR metrics are point-in-time measurements of workforce health (turnover rate, headcount, time to hire). People analytics uses those metrics combined with behavioral data and statistical methods to identify patterns and predict outcomes. People analytics asks 'Why is turnover high in Engineering?' HR metrics tell you turnover is 20%. The distinction matters because analytics drives better decisions than metrics alone.
