People Analytics

The use of data science to understand and improve workforce performance and decisions.

Full Definition

People analytics (also called workforce analytics or HR analytics) applies data science methods — including statistical analysis, predictive modeling, and machine learning — to HR data to generate insights that improve talent decisions and business outcomes. Use cases include predicting which employees are likely to resign, identifying what drives engagement, optimizing team structures, and measuring the ROI of HR programmes. As organizations collect more HR data, people analytics is becoming a core competency for HR teams.
