Human Resource Management with Human- Robots Collaboration

Human Resource Management with Human- Robots Collaboration 



 One of the most important influencing factors in any industry is technology. Robots have been displacing employees in manufacturing since the 19th century. Workforce was displaced by machines in the third revolution, which began in the 1970s with the introduction of personal computers and the internet into the workplace. Digital technologies such as machine language and artificial intelligence are now being integrated into day-to-day workplace operations, resulting in corporate transformation. In HRM it is a new challenge to adapt to this cooperate transformation and need to update with new concepts such as Artificial intelligence.

Artificial intelligence is defined as, 

“an ideal intelligent” machine that is flexible agent that perceives its environment and takes actions maximize its chance of success at some goal.” (Yawalkar, 2019).

 Artificial intelligence, in contrast to natural intelligence displayed by humans, is intelligence demonstrated by machines. In 1956, academicians developed the term "artificial intelligence" for the first time. Artificial intelligence can assist in the automation of a variety of corporate processes, reducing the strain and work pressure on individuals at work. Rapid changes in the business environment necessitate quick responses. Traditional HRM responsibilities were challenged by automation, and a new age of HRM had to be implemented.

 When statistics clearly demonstrate automation's potential, it's difficult to argue against it. The most recent proof comes from a Chinese factory in Dongguan City. The firm recently replaced 90 percent of its human workers with machines, resulting in a 250 percent boost in production and an 80 percent reduction in faults.as the cooperate transformation like this roles of the HRM criticized and forced to find new ways to face the  consequences (Javelosa & Houser, 2022).

 with this corporate transformation, In the field of Human Resource Management, automation is having an increasingly serious affect on workforce planning. It greatly expands HR analytics' possibilities and expectations. Traditional HR operations like hiring, training, and benefits administration are being transformed by technology. And a strong HR role is required to execute all of this change.

 Understanding and applying the power of automation could be the difference between individuals who develop in the profession and those who are marginalized and finally automated out of their HR roles. According to Robert Bolton, a London-based partner at global consultant KPMG, some HR operations "have woken up and are leading a higher-purpose conversation on the trajectory of automation within their enterprises." 

 when its come to making the changes in concepts in HRM, a desire to collaborate with technology, as well as an examination of HRM systems' moderating role In order to achieve effective human-robot collaboration, and assume that the intention to collaborate is essential.


Figure 2:Conceptual Model (Militor, 2020)



 Human-robot collaboration concept is driven through some areas and it enables HRM to make its Transformation for next generation. It is important to ensure that workers and robots have the best possible synergy. However, in addition to factors related to individuals and technologies, factors related to management and work environment can have a significant impact on technology adoption. When it comes to collaborative robotics implementation, specific literature from the fields of information and communication technology (ICT) or advanced manufacturing technology (AMT) provides excellent leads for HRM. For instance, consider the organization.


Figure 3:Integrated Framework (Libert, et al., 2020)




  HRM practices may also help to reduce the impact of HRC and other external variables .  for example, by enhancing employees' capacity to operate successfully within a collaborative cell through specific training. Also believe that HRM practices may have a direct impact on the TAM's initial variables.
 Effective communication could, in fact, inform employees to workplace changes, potentially lowering the influence of employee attitudes toward use. Furthermore, through enhancing commitment to change, various HRM tactics may influence behavioral intention, technology utilization, and HRC. HRM techniques focusing on empowerment or the development of incentives might stimulate HRC in that situation, as could employees' commitment to change and real use of the system, which is just one of many options.

    Human Resources is one of the most important aspects of any organization since it is closely linked to the lives of the individuals who work for it. HR's job is to ensure that every employee feels comfortable and receives the necessary assistance, as well as to provide them room to express their creativity, intelligence, and empathy in order to do exceptional work.

    Artificial intelligence, which is currently one of the most advanced and rapidly developing technology, has greatly aided the HR department. The majority of low-value HR duties are automated and completed by AI, allowing greater attention to be focused on the strategic scope of work. Valuable topic to be discussed Asiri.
