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.
