HR Document Organization — From Hiring to Offboarding

HR Document Organization — From Hiring to Offboarding

HR Documentation: Sensitive and Mandatory

For every employee, a company must retain: employment contract, amendments, NDA, payroll records, training certificates, performance reviews, vacation approvals, any disciplinary actions, and termination documentation.

Labor laws prescribe retention periods from 5 years to permanent for various HR documents.

HR Document Lifecycle

  1. Hiring: CV, employment contract, ID copy, NDA, onboarding materials
  2. During employment: payslips, vacation records, reviews, training, contract amendments
  3. Offboarding: termination notice, handover protocol, final settlement, pension fund certificates

How DMS Helps HR

Employee-Based Organization

Each employee has a digital file with all documents — from day one to the last. Search by name, department, or document type.

Access Control

Only the HR department can see HR documentation. Managers see only their direct reports. Nobody else has access to payroll data or disciplinary records.

Automatic Retention Periods

Payroll records — permanent. Social security filings — 5 years. DMS automatically tracks retention periods and notifies when it's time for document destruction.

Onboarding/Offboarding Checklists

New employee? DMS generates a checklist of all required documents. Employee leaving? Checklist for handover and file closure.
