Abstract

The article outlines new approaches to human resource management in educational institutions under conditions of digitalization and uncertainty of the external environment, as well as the increasing role of employees in influencing organizational performance. The purpose of the article is to substantiate the role of digitalization of human resource management as a tool for transitioning from the automation of HR processes to systemic management of human factor risks in the context of forming a security-oriented management system of an educational institution. The processes of digitalization of human resource management in educational institutions are examined through the lens of security-oriented management. It is substantiated that under conditions of rapid development of the digital society, the digitalization of HR management processes goes beyond technological automation and acquires managerial and security-related significance. It is determined that the human factor in educational institutions acts simultaneously as a key resource and a source of potential risks, including employee burnout, an increase in conflicts, communication disruptions, and a decrease in labor productivity. The author proposes an original interpretation of the digitalization of human resource management as an integrated process of creating a digital management environment aimed at early identification, assessment, and minimization of human factor risks, as well as at enhancing the resilience and securit of an educational institution’s functioning. The main groups of digital HR tools are systematized and their role in the risk management system is outlined. Key directions for implementing digitalization of human resource management in educational institutions are identified and their security effects are substantiated. It is concluded that the digitalization of human resource management is a system-forming element of security-oriented management and creates preconditions for the transition from reactive to proactive management.
