Employees are the foundation of your HR

Employee records are intended for HR and management and are usually inaccessible to ordinary employees because they contain personal data. Other employees only see their colleagues in the Employee directory. Employee records serve as one central place where you have all the information you need about the employees in your company. Each employee can then see information about themselves in their self-service.

We recommend going through the HR Manager's First Steps guide.

In the Employee organizer, you keep all the information about your employees. Each person in your company has a personal employee file, which contains all their personal and contact details, their employment contract, their job equipment, their financial assessment, their salary progression, their benefits, their training, their identity or health information, and any other related information you need to keep on your employees. You also have information relevant to their onboarding, company life, and termination. Also included is a job description or job classification.

Employee's personnel file and other information

Employee records serve as one central place where you have all the information you need about your employees. Only you as the HR manager can see this information. Each employee can see their own information in their self-service record. They can also edit selected basic information themselves and you will be notified of this. This simplifies the entire communication process between the employee and the company.

The employee's personnel file is organized so that you have everything essential about the employee in one place. If the information you keep is not enough, it can be easily expanded. Access to specific data is restricted by access rights, so only you as HR can work with it. If the company needs it, the management or payroll accountants, for example, can also get access to HR. 

The employee's personnel file contains the basic personal data required

  • Employee contact details
