HR Open Standards

HR Open Standards is the non-profit body publishing free, vendor-neutral data-exchange specifications for human resources — recruiting, assessments, payroll, benefits enrolment, time and labour, and employee records. Formerly HR-XML, it is the longest-running attempt to standardise the HR data layer and remains one of the least adopted standards relative to the size of the market it serves.
