Why go digital

Why do paper HR files put compliance at risk?

Regulations control how employee data is stored, how long it is kept and, above all, who can access it.

Slow to find

Finding a paper file can take 30 minutes to hours, if it turns up at all.

Hard to audit

Digital files are indexed and produced quickly, even for the strictest auditor.

Easy to lose or expose

Paper can be damaged, misplaced or seen by the wrong person. Digital files are encrypted and backed up.
