Decision Criteria For Outsourcing Versus In-House HR Programs 


The decision to fully outsource depends on the following factors:

1. The organizational strategy
2. The organizational size and location
3. The stage in the organization life cycle

• Level 1 (0-2 years in life cycle) Level 2 (2-3 years in lifecycle) that are limited by people resources and financial restraints make excellent candidates for a full outsourcing model. This model can provide savings of at least 45-55% a year versus having your own internal HR staff.


• Level 3 (3-6 years life cycle), there are specific areas that may be financially viable to outsource including  benefits, compensation administration, payroll, employee relations, and recruiting.


• Level 4 organizations may need to cut overhead expenses and reduce administrative burdens by outsourcing human resources. The decision to in-source or outsource HR should follow a careful organizational analysis. Fully  outsourced models do have disadvantages by lack of internal focus and dedication to personnel through HR.
