Here’s why
focusing on HR resilience helps strengthen the full workplace, according to Dufrane and Beebe:
;HR and TR are a cornerstone of the trust employees have in an organization, which is a pillar of resilience.;
;HR teams themselves are dealing with small teams, limited resources and unexpected change, requiring adaptability that can be modeled and emulated across the organization.;
;The environment an organization’s leaders create influences its resilience, allowing it to strengthen over time, keeping up with the pace of rapidly accelerating change.;
;Trickle-down resilience skills help workers adapt to changes without eroding engagement or momentum.;
When employees are apprehensive of rapid change, it’s up to HR to
shine a light on the career paths and opportunities available to them, Dufrane said.

Benefits
According to Dwyer, these benefits include:
;Greater efficiency and speed by automating tasks such as collecting and analyzing market data, creating salary ranges or administering benefits — freeing up HR and TR professionals to focus on strategic tasks.;
;More accurate, objective, data-driven compensation and benefits decisions supported by the analysis of various data and information sources, reducing human inconsistencies or mistakes.;
;Increased equity — when utilized properly — by extending neutral, data-backed pay offers that help eliminate unconscious biases.;
;Personalized, tailored TR packages that appeal to specific candidates and increase offer acceptance rates and employee satisfaction, created by analyzing data on job role, location, performance and career stage.;
;Up-to-the-minute market competitiveness through constant monitoring of external data.;
Dennison also noted the roles AI tools can play in highlighting pay inequities and proposing solutions.
