HR Glossary
What is Digital Workforce?
The combination of software bots, AI agents, and automated processes that perform tasks traditionally done by human employees, operating alongside the human workforce as a distinct labor category that needs its own governance, capacity planning, and performance management.
Why it matters in hiring
Digital Workforce comes up whenever teams compare candidates, set policy or report on people data. Getting the definition right keeps decisions consistent, which is the same reason springhire scores every applicant against the same criteria rather than on impression.
