BPMS offer a range of services to allow HR managers to efficiently capture and associate documents with employees by name or staff number. HR file scanning eliminates the need for document storage either in filing cabinets or off site in an expensive storage facility. The documents can then be accessed via a web interface or through a dedicated application. Most importantly it’s fast, completely secure and complies with statutory retention periods for all documents.

Electronic document management enables all physical and digital documents relating to an employee to be captured and stored – this includes paper documents and also emails. These may be required during HR or legal proceedings. All documents scanned are admissible in court in their electronic form.
