When a number of companies are
outsourcing their HR activities, there must be certain
benefits associated with it. The major advantage is the
cost and the time factor. According to India Life
Hewitt, Vice-President, Leo Fernandes, “For large
organizations to service their mammoth payroll by
themselves is a huge drain on their resources.
Outsourcing this one activity alone is huge direct cost
saving for large legacy companies which could be in the
range of 20 to 40 per cent." 2

• Fosters Innovation
