Abstract :
In recent years, the advent of cloud computing has brought significant advances in the IT industry, and business management. One of the most important advantages of this technology is its reduced cost and the ability to seamlessly manage resources without the need for costly deployment of multiple infrastructures and software, and is thus widely used in the deployment of management systems and systems in organizations. Cloud computing technology has also been widely used in human resource management systems. In many cases the implementation and deployment of multiple HRM systems and software, especially for small and medium-sized organizations, entails numerous costs. Cloud computing technology is a tool that allows organizations to form and manage management systems, including their own human resource management systems, in a seamless, low-cost cloud environment. The purpose of this study is to explore the applications, advantages and challenges of cloud computing technology in human resource management, and its implementation requirements especially in small and medium enterprises. The study was carried out through library method and literature review. And it has attempted to review how literature and the requirements of cloud computing are applied in human resource management by reviewing literature and research in this area. Based on the findings of this study, the applications of cloud computing in human resource management systems in SMEs are widespread. This technology can be used in talent recruitment, training and development of human resources, compensation management systems, and human resource management and evaluation. Also, the advantages and challenges of this technology in human resource management of small and medium-sized enterprises can be categorized into two general categories, including internal and external factors. Internal advantages and challenges include technical, security, human, and financial factors, and external factors include environmental and legal factors. The applications and advantages and challenges of this technology are described in detail in the HRM systems of SMEs. The findings of this study can serve as a basis for companies and organizations to manage small organizations using and utilizing cloud computing technology in human resource management systems.
