Digitalisation in business processes has become very popular, even though it is difficult for companies to implement. Digital transformation and digital disruption of Human Resource Management triggered the concept of Digital HRM. This article aims to clarify the general understanding of phenomena related to the relationship between Digital HRM, Digital Skills, and Employee Performance. The concept of Digital HRM brings an evolutionary advancement for the future. Human Resource demands digital skills that produce and distribute ideas and information. Thus, understanding the factors behind the different levels of various digital skills is very important. Digitalisation grades differently among HR, contributing to an organisation’s level of success. They include information, communication, collaboration, critical thinking, creativity, and problem-solving. Our literature review finds that employees who can access information systems through the digital process are considered to have a successful performance. Human resource information systems are helpful in HR processes and strategic organisational development tools. In this case, technology acts as a trigger to better share technology-based facilities, services, and decision analysis.
