Human Resources offers key functionality to facilitate a faster, more effective approach for governments to manage civil servants through the entire human resources lifecycle from entry to exit from the public service. It is divided into several sub-modules:

• Organization Management – covers the creation and maintenance of organizational structures.  It incorporates how to create, modify, and delete institutions, generic positions, and employee positions. 
• Employee Management –manages all employee related information. It serves as the foundation of the employee information used throughout the other modules as they go through the Employee Life Cycle of CSM.
• Assignment Management - incorporates the link between all employee files and the assignments that each of these employees hold.  Employee assignments are searched, modified, and/or ended as required. This is the information that specifies the functions the employee is performing for the government, and it also serves as the basis for payroll.
• Recruitment Management – incorporates all aspects that are required in a recruitment process.  The module covers how to create a recruitment requisition, conduct an internal candidate search, manage internal and external applicants, schedule interviews, and create job offers based on all information gathered throughout the process.
• Performance Appraisal Management - is designed to set up and complete performance appraisals.  The module includes creating all templates, schedules, and affected employees, as well as setting the scoring and objectives included in completing a 360 degree performance appraisal. 
  
• Training Management - covers how to set up training courses, apply to training, and manages the applicants for each course.  Upon completion of courses, the module monitors the evaluations and feedback on the course, the trainees, and the trainers.
