What is Mercer Operations Scanner™?

Mercer Operations Scanner^TM is a measurement and diagnostic tool that captures critical, quantifiable insights about how HR functions day to day. By administering a self-assessment survey to key staff — both inside and outside HR — you’ll learn:

• How HR allocates its time. 
• What value your employees and managers place on the services provided by your HR function. 
• HR’s effectiveness in delivering key services to the business. 
• How the current structure impacts the way HR delivers services.
  
  

What is Mercer’s HR Scale Tool?

Mercer's proprietary HR function sizing tool can help you determine the appropriate number of FTEs for each part of the HR function. Based on benchmarks, this easy to use, hands-on tool allows Mercer to set factors to load benchmarks to propose staffing levels for individual functions within HR.
