Already Mature
Comp & Benefits is 78% automated today — by 2030 it will be 94%. If you're behind here, you're losing daily on cost and accuracy.
Stays Human
ER & HRBP stay below 45% even by 2030 — automation handles the admin, humans own the relationships. Reposition these roles around judgment and influence.
