"We're excited to bring the latest information about human resources technology to the forefront," said Matthew Kaiser, SPHR, CEBS, Vice President, Director of Technology and Outsourcing. "Readers of the blog can expect insight from all 17 members of my team. We have feet on the ground across the country, keeping up with innovation from vendors. We have a great sense of what's working in the marketplace – and what's not, and what employers need to do to survive and thrive with regard to their technology needs during this era of health reform."

Topics will include: payroll, time & attendance, reporting, self-service, benefits administration, online enrollment, and more. Kaiser says, "If it has to do with HRIS, we'll be talking about it. This is an exciting time for Human Resources Information Systems, and there's a lot of information to share." Kaiser encourages feedback and comments, and is looking forward to spirited dialogue. "If I thought everyone was going to agree with everything we said," said Kaiser, "we would just keep the information to ourselves. But we intend to start conversations with hope for lively discussions with our readers."
