Digitalization of HR-related processes and activities is increasing rapidly and allows active use of such information as Big Data. Big Data includes enormous amounts of information, that can assist employers to recruit, promote, motivate, reward employees and identify low performers among them. As a result, Big Data of employees, candidates and former employees has become a significant value for employers. Despite these benefits, use of Big Data undoubtedly presents certain issues which the employer should consider. Everybody has heard the recent high-profile case of the dismissal of a large number of employees, based on the Big Data analysis of their activities. That’s why we can`t ignore discussion of Big Data issues in employment context anymore.

Incentivizing of employees exerts a strong influence in terms of their strategic impact and can be an effective tool for employers, particularly during times of economic uncertainty. Incentivizing enables employers to retain key talents, implement new skills and behaviors, and drive organizational transformation. The fast-changing employment environment, due to the COVID-19 outbreak, can also inspire the need for changes to the employees’ incentivizing. Now, as organizations have adjusted to a new reality, they have an opportunity to reevaluate their pay plans and introduce some program changes that could help them thrive, within a rapidly changing economic reality. In this episode we will address these issues that are crucial to organizations and discuss the acceptable types of employee motivation and incentive in Russia.
