CONCLUSION

 Learning about information system has broadened my knowledge about technology. Information system is not about connecting people all over the world but also can used in our daily life. Technology aided the works and the tasks become more easy and achievable. Among the three topics, I like the topic on web based safety and health more because I would love to work in that area one fine day. Thus, by learning it in this subject can helps me a lot if I work in that area. But, if I do not get to work in OSH area, I will implement it in the position that I will be assigned later. Overall, I enjoy learning in the class of Dr Roya Anvari because she was very nice and kind to us. (130 words)

Blog 3 Web Based Compensation and Planning

        The topic of compensation and planning is interesting because it usually involves the process of compensation data and information. Online compensation is the web based approach of compensation tools that enable organization to gather, store, manipulate, analyse, utilise and distribute compensation data and information. Whereas, planning is a systematic approach to estimating the future needs of a company in terms of labor and supply.

            After understanding the main concept of this topic, the web based compensation is the process that using technology as a means to manage it. Usually compensation is related with the monetary and rewards, thus, managing it might be difficult and hard since everyone wanted the rewards. With using web based tools, managing the process will become easier.

            There are two components in compensation, first is the fixed compensation and second is the variable compensation. Under fixed compensation are bonuses, pay wage, merit pay and equity adjustments. Meanwhile, under the variable components are individual incentives plan, group incentives plan, profit sharing plan and productivity gain sharing programs. Online compensation may be beneficial in terms of streamlining the administration of employee’s compensation and benefits. Process to streamline the administration will become easier since the technology helps a lot. Other than that, it improves the effectiveness either by in terms of the accuracy of information or by using the technology to simplify the process. The information entered may went wrong and does not align with the real information, so using the online can fixed the information and detect where is the part that going wrong. Manager also can access to the information that they wanted and does not have to go through the third party. The record of the compensation can be referred if there has any problems that arise in the future.

            In my opinion, e-planning is the process to estimating the future needs of the organization. Every organization must have planning for the whole year in order to make sure that the journey of the organization runs smoothly. Thus, the planning should be planned thoroughly so that the plan will be execute according to the plan. Employees play important roles in executing the plan because they are the main element of the organization. Without employees, the organization may decrease in productivity due to the absence of the employees.

            Online compensation and planning is actually made the process in the organization become easier. I have learnt new things and I was satisfied because I know the new knowledge in the information system.  (414 words)

Blog 2 Web Based Occupational Safety and Health

         The day I learnt about occupational safety and health (OSH), I realize about the importance of technology in OSH. Safety and health area is a wide area, thus acquire a thorough observation from the management in the organization. Technology made the process become faster and the quantity of accidents can be decreased.

            One of the web based OSH function is as a safety and health training records for the organization. Every employee must be obliged to go training for safety and health. This is to prepare themselves and having knowledge about safety at the workplace. The record must be kept in the system established by the organization to ensure the attendance of employees to the training. Moreover, it can be reference for management to send again the employees to learn about the other OSH courses. Other than that, the training records can be used when an employee is having an accident. The record can be checked whether the employee had already known how to handle the situation that may avoid accident from happen.

            Besides that, the web based can be used as the accident reporting and record keeping. When there has accidents happen in the plant or industrial area, the employee must report the accidents to the top management. Every employee is obliged to fill the annual form regarding all the reportable work-related injuries and illnesses.  This form will be filled in every year by all the workers. The use of that form is to displays total injuries and illnesses for the year either they having injuries or not. Moreover, actions can be taken suitable with the accidents that were recorded. This is to determine the suitable treatment with the injuries having by the employees.

            The third function is for workers’ compensation claims. When employees were having accidents, of course they wanted to claim the compensation from the organization if the accident was from the workplace. So, to avoid from the employees to cheat the management, they must fill the forms of accidents. Thus, the amount of compensation is given suitable with the degree of the injuries. This is same when employees want to claim for external insurance, the records keeping can confirm the accidents because the records cannot be cheated.

            I think that the web based OSH has really helping the organization in handling the safety and health at the workplace. I was so satisfied at the end of the class because I have gain new knowledge on the web based. (412 words)

Blog 1 Web Based Employees Learning and Development

           When I learnt about learning, I must think about the concept of changing behaviour because when we learn, the result of the learning process is the change of behaviour. Learning and development can be the stage for organization to ensure the long competitiveness, excellence, quality, flexibility and adaptability.

            Training is essential for organization to increase the productivity of the organization. This is because it helps the employees to develop themselves not only will bring to the individual performance but also the organization performance. Nowadays, technology is important in human’s life. With that, the existence of Employee Learning and Development system is needed for all the employees worldwide.

            One of LED function is to foster employee motivation and satisfaction. When these two elements were fulfilled, the productivity of the organization will increase. Online learning will aided them to learn and choose the courses that they wanted. Online learning can be accessed at anywhere and anytime. The internet facilitates the divergence of the learning through the World Wide Web since it was using by worldwide. Other than that, LED function is also to help the employee manage their stress due to work overload. When employees receive training, they must have learnt on how to manage their time and tasks so that it can be completed in the time allocated. This can help employees from having stress due to the workload. Learning can also ensure the employees can keep on competitiveness and will perform in their work. After undergo training, employees will gain knowledge and improve skills in their expertise area, so they can perform their work for their organization. People nowadays will refer the training as learning because they feel that when they were sent for the training, it means that whether they were not good or they were punished. It makes them feel bad, thus, management will call it as learning instead of training.

            Besides that, LED program is a saving course because it can save the money and time to learn from it. Before this, the learning process required to send many peoples which involve lot of money, time and energy. But, with this e-learning, the cost can be reduces and the time can be shorten. The employees also will take responsibility on their own learning because it will build self-confidence of them.

            I always think that e-learning facilitates my work and schedule because all the information was gathered all in one system. Even though e-learning has disadvantages but still it has advantages in helping learners become more expert and knowledgeable.
