With the increasing use of digital tools in government run schemes, lot of existent practices are slowly and gradually being taken over by digital programs. We may refer, Integrated Child Development Services (ICDS) program, which has also adopted various digital tools for management of these human resources, comprising of digital reporting, online attendance, tech driven training structure and electronic communication facility. In this context, this study aims at evaluating and comparing traditional (manual) and modern (digital) Human Resource Management (HRM) systems in ICDS and analyse its impact on program efficiency. This study follows a detailed study pattern to understand the prevailing HRM practices and their influence on the performance of ICDS staff such as Anganwadi Workers, Helpers, Supervisors, and Child Development Project Officers. Data are collected using a structured questionnaire focusing on major HRM functions including recruitment, training and development, performance management, compensation, employee relations, and HR administration. The study attempts to highlight how the shift from manual procedures to digital HRM systems has influenced transparency, communication, monitoring, and service delivery. The findings of the study are expected to provide insights into the effectiveness of digital HRM practices in improving employee efficiency and administrative functioning within ICDS. Furthermore, the study may help policymakers and administrators understand the benefits and challenges associated with digital transformation in HR management and suggest ways to strengthen digital HR systems in social welfare programs.
