Impact of Information Technology on Human Resources in Healthcare
Mehran Anvari
Abstract:
Incorporation of advances in information communications technology
(ICT) into the workplace has had a major impact in human resource
utilization in sectors of the economy where it has occurred in a
substantial manner, such as manufacturing and financial services.
While some benefits of ICT have been realized in healthcare, the
full impact of its benefits will only be realized if it is
incorporated in a systematic form, rather than in the current
patchy and uneven manner seen around the province and across the
country to date. Furthermore, provincial governments are dedicating
significant financial resources in aligning some of these ventures,
such as electronic medical records and digital, filmless imaging
systems. However, there is significantly more to be done as
healthcare finally embraces information technology and recognizes
the full force of its impact in the next two decades. For the
purpose of this discussion, I analyze the impact of information
technology on human resources in healthcare but do not discuss the
necessary component of planning for infrastructure, which has to go
hand in hand with this conversation.

Supervisors Missing Link in Employee Health
The quality of the relationship between supervisor and employee is perhaps the most important workplace determinant of health, says a new research report.
The Missing Link: Supervisors' Role in Employee Health
Management from Shepell·fgi reveals that many organizations do not
provide supervisors with the tools they need to effectively manage
employee absence or address problems in employee productivity or
behaviour.
The majority of respondents (84%) to a recent online survey
conducted by Shepell·fgi report that supervisors in their
organizations do not receive 'real time' employee absence data,
while 81% report their organization does not have a structured
process in place that is consistently used by supervisors to
address intermittent absence problems.
Moreover, supervisors are not provided with the tools they need to effectively manage a return to work process, with 64% of respondents reporting that their organization does not have a structured process in place that supervisors use consistently to support employees returning to work from an illness or disability.
