Efficient management of employee files

The employee file is made up of a large number of documents, covering the entire life cycle from the selection phase as a candidate, through the hiring phase as an employee and ending at the end of the relationship with the company.

This file management involves a high volume of tasks for the HR department, being some of the most common tasks:

  • Generation of engagement letters.
  • Generation of contracts.
  • Registration of personal data of the candidate / employee.
  • Management of employee documentation: ID cards, passports, registrations, cancellations, etc.
  • Administrative tasks suck as compliance with mandatory courses, personnel payroll, etc.
  • Signature documents.
  • Employee notifications.

Completing these tasks requires a high degree of manual intervention in the HR department (editing, searching, saving, etc.), and the workload, together with the responsibility and complexity of the tasks, means that on many occasions the HR team is unable to attend to our requests because they are involved with more critical tasks such as payroll, registration of new employees in the company, etc.

In addition to the conventional problems such as paper and ink waste, human errors in editing and validation, etc., experience tells us that the management of a department’s resources can be key to optimizing departmental costs. This, together with the well-being of employees by relieving their stress and workload, makes it necessary to automate and simplify the team’s processes.
