5. Identification of training needs.
 
Acquisition, storage and retrieval of information present a significant challenge to the management. However, once the database is created, maintenance becomes easier.

1. Storing information and data for each individual employee for future reference.

2. Providing a basis for planning, organizing, decision making, controlling and a host of other human resource functions.

3. Meeting daily transactional requirements such as marking present, absent or granting leave.
