How does the Global HR module work in Fusion?

Oracle Fusion Global HR is the foundational module within Oracle Fusion HCM, providing the core infrastructure for managing a global workforce. It's designed to handle the complexities of diverse workforces across different countries and regions. Here's a breakdown of how it works:

Core Functionality :

  • Centralized Employee Data Management:
    • Global HR serves as a single source of truth for all employee data, including personal information, employment history, and organizational assignments.
    • This centralized repository ensures data consistency and accuracy across the organization.
  • Organizational Structure Management:
    • It enables organizations to define and manage complex organizational structures, including legal entities, business units, departments, and positions.
    • This allows businesses to accurately represent their global workforce and reporting hierarchies.
  • Workforce Modeling:
    • Global HR facilitates workforce modeling, allowing organizations to simulate different organizational scenarios and analyze their impact.
    • This helps businesses plan for future workforce needs and changes.
  • Global Compliance:
    • It supports global compliance requirements by providing features for managing country-specific regulations and reporting obligations.
    • This includes features for managing employee contracts, visas, and other legal requirements.
  • Security and Access Control:
    • Global HR provides granular security and access control, allowing organizations to restrict access to sensitive employee data based on roles and responsibilities.
    • This is very important for data privacy.
  • Workflow Automation:
    • It automates key HR processes, such as employee onboarding, transfers, and terminations, improving efficiency and reducing manual errors.
  • Person and Employment Model:
    • Fusion uses a very flexible person and employment model. This allows for very complex worker situations, such as contingent workers, or multi-job workers.

Key Aspects of Global Functionality :

  • Multi-Language and Multi-Currency Support:
    • Global HR supports multiple languages and currencies, enabling organizations to manage a diverse workforce.
  • Localization:
    • Oracle provides localized versions of Fusion HCM for various countries, ensuring compliance with local regulations and cultural norms.
  • Global Reporting:
    • It provides robust reporting capabilities, allowing organizations to generate global workforce reports and analyze key HR metrics.
  • Legislative Data:
    • Oracle provides legislative data updates to help ensure that companies stay compliant with changing laws.
