Working from home when people are your work:  How to update workplace processes for HR professionals. 

Although certainly in the spotlight since the rise of COVID-19, the need for a successful work-from-home strategy has been on the horizon for years – both out of logistical necessity and employee preference.  When managed correctly, remote workers are more productive than their “in office” counterparts while also reporting higher levels of job satisfaction.  It’s the ultimate win-win. 

As you think about your own model, don’t forget to use the tools available to keep teams connected and productive when they are working remotely.  Cloud services, for example, can play a big role in a successful work-from-home strategy.  

As the office hub, HR teams are in a unique position when it comes to working from home.  They need access to sensitive employee information, but may not be able to get to their files remotely.  There’s also the issue of compliance.  HR is responsible for keeping sensitive files secure and reducing risk wherever possible. 

Tools For Success

One of the first steps to successfully working from home is making sure you have the tools needed to do your work.  For most in the office, this might mean hardware like laptops or phones.  For the HR team, though, it includes a lot of confidential information – and paper employee files are not something you’ll want to take home in boxes at the end of the day.

A successful work-from-home strategy ensures HR can get to shared digital versions of important documents.  By storing employee files in the cloud, you and your team can securely access documents from anywhere.  Instantly pull up files, produce copies upon request, and add to employee folders remotely.

Pro Tips

Transitioning to a more virtual workplace will be much less stressful if your current HR system and document cloud work together.  For example, your HRIS should feed data to your filing system.  That way, you’re not manually updating status changes and you can always sort your files by the most up-to-date information. 

The right cloud filing system does more than just allow HR to access documents from home – it can improve compliance, too.  Track documents that are missing from employee folders and documents that will expire soon.  The ability to properly audit what files have been added, deleted, downloaded, or even just viewed is also an essential component to any document access point.

Next Steps

Does your work-from-home strategy cover all the bases?  Getting HR setup with a file cloud can be a quick process with the right solution.  Choosing a system designed for employee files is key to maintaining compliance and saving HR time in the long run. 

Organizations like Hyatt, Toll Brothers, and Nestle rely on DynaFile to keep sensitive employee documents secure yet accessible from anywhere.  With over 20 years in the business, DynaFile is quick to implement and easy to use.  Contact us today to see how it fits into your work-from-home strategy.

Due to the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic affecting the world, the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is urging people to practice “Social Distancing.”  

“Many public schools, libraries, universities, places of worship, and sporting and cultural institutions have shut down for at least the next few weeks. These measures are an attempt to enforce distance between people, a proven way to slow pandemics.  Experts have also been urging people to practice voluntary ‘social distancing.'” – The NY Times. 

This includes avoiding gatherings of more than 50 people and a strong recommendation to work from home.  Since the global health crisis is not expected to subside anytime soon, HR teams need to ensure they can still access critical documentation if they are not in the office.

Access Files 24/7

It’s essential that your HR team maintains access to important documents, even if they are out of the office.  A secure cloud provides a way for them to instantly get to the documents they need remotely.  New documents can also be added to employee folders from anywhere, at any time.

Maintain Compliance

File requests can come at anytime.  You might have an auditor, attorney, or manager that simply cannot wait to receive a copy of critical employee documentation.  It’s crucial to be sure folders are up-to-date and available for remote file requests.

Utilize Online Forms

Business does not grind to halt when individuals are out of the office.  When pen-and-paper processes become difficult to accomplish, online forms and e-signatures can keep the HR department running smoothly.  Allow staff to complete and e-sign forms no matter where they are located.

2020 Solutions for Personnel Forms in the HR Department

Are there still gaps in the HR signature process?  Use these tips to fine tune your 2020 personnel form process and start next year strong. 

Enhance your HR operations with 2020 solutions for personnel forms. Embrace custom templates, automatic filing, and audit tracking with DynaFile. Streamline processes and ensure compliance. Discover how San Diego Zoo benefits from our solution. Join us for more insights.

Paper forms are still a reality for many professionals in the Human Resources department.  Even if some forms can be completed and signed digitally, there is often an opportunity to streamline the process further.  Here are a few solutions for personnel forms to get your team ready for 2020. 

Custom Templates

One of the most common challenges with your HRIS or Payroll system’s “onboarding” module is the limitation on types of forms that can be completed.  Many times you are limited to only standardized tax forms.  

But, what about forms that are specific to your organization or industry?  There are tons of companies that still use paper forms for things like policy acknowledgements, performance evaluations, employee change forms, PTO requests, and more. 

A digital signature solution that is flexible enough to handle your custom forms is essential for driving paper out of the HR department.  DocuSign, for example, is a popular option that does not limit the types of forms that can be used.

Automatic Filing

After forms are completed and signed digitally, where do they land?  A lot of HR teams find that their HRIS or Payroll system does not provide a compliant way to manage employee documents digitally.  So, onboarding forms are still printed and added to a traditional paper personnel folder. 

An electronic filing solution that is designed for HR should make long-term compliance easy.  DynaFile, for example, will automatically file your completed forms in the cloud after the signature process.  Each form is tagged individually so the system can:

  1. Save all documents in the correct location;
  2. Control access to sensitive documents like I-9 and Medical;
  3. Show you missing or expiring documents in staff folders

Audit Tracking

Receiving a file request from an auditor can be a stressful scenario, but it doesn’t have to be.  With your personnel files being tracked, you can always be sure staff folders are up-to-date with required documents. 

Reports can show your team if folders are missing documents or include forms that need to be updated.  You can even provide a secure link to auditors so they receive a copy of the documents they request remotely.

Next Steps for 2020

If you would like to fine tune your forms and file management process for 2020, contact us today.  DynaFile provides a shortcut to the cloud and lasting compliance tools that save HR time long-term.

Now is a good time to start thinking about your employee files.  Are documents easy to find when you are audited?  Can teams access the files they need from different locations?  Is paper still slowing down your current process?  Time to get your HR file management strategy ready for 2020. 

Compliant Cloud

Not all ‘document clouds’ are created equal.  Many are simply a storage place that can become a ‘virtual junk drawer’ instead of an organized, useful system.  This can cause compliance issues down the line.

HR document management software is the solution.  These systems allow you to consolidate employee documentation in one compliant cloud.  Files are indexed and highly organized so you can control access to sensitive types of documents like I-9’s, Medical, and other Confidential records. 

Audits now become seamless.  Reports keep track of required and expiring documents in staff folders automatically so there is never a scramble in the event of an audit.  You can give auditors access to just the files they need to see while eliminating file requests from payroll, location partners, and department managers.

Paperless Shortcuts

If you’re still dealing with paper, a scan-to-cloud document management system can help.  HR can digitize existing files fast and easily manage future paper.  These filing solutions make going paperless easier by skipping many of the steps in the scanning process. 

In order to eliminate paper from the start, your onboarding forms can be completed online, too.  Replace a slow signature process with forms in the cloud.  Once finished, all signed forms are filed in the new hire’s folder – and labeled – automatically.  That means that your audit reports, access rules, and retention schedules start working for you immediately. 

Start Fresh In 2020

If you’re looking for a better way to manage employee files, DynaFile can help.  Most HR teams are up and running in under 30 days so you can start fresh in 2020.  With a shortcut to paperless and lasting compliance advantages, DynaFile is has been helping organizations streamline the HR department for over 20 years.  Contact us today to learn more. 

HR Document Management Soothes Compliance Concerns for Personnel Forms

by

With the right HR document management strategy, concerns about personnel form compliance are a thing of the past.

Simplify HR compliance with advanced document management solutions. Go paperless with digital personnel forms, streamline signatures, and ensure sensitive data is protected with role-based access. DynaFile offers two decades of expertise in revolutionizing HR processes, ensuring you're always compliant. Discover the future of HR documentation; reach out to us to explore the potential of DynaFile.

Maintaining compliant employee records is an important part of any organization.  Documentation typically includes onboarding forms, policy acknowledgements, medical information, performance evaluations, credentials, trainings, and more. 

The responsibility of keeping personnel folders compliant usually falls on the shoulders of the human resources team – and it’s not an easy job.  However, with the right HR document management strategy, compliance concerns are a thing of the past.  Here are some tools that can make the process much easier. 

Streamline Your Signature Process

You can replace much of your paper process with online personnel forms and digital signatures.  Now all of your forms can be signed and filed in the cloud where you can find them instantly without dealing with paper or manually setting up folders.

You’re not limited to just tax forms, either.  Policy acknowledgements and other company-specific forms can be done the same way.  The best part is that each form is individually identified and automatically filed after the signature process.  This means that tracking files long-term becomes incredibly easy.

Always Know What’s in the Folder

It can be difficult to keep track of forms after everything is completed and signed.  With digital personnel forms, HR can save a ton of time on long-term document management through reports.  There’s no need to manually go into each folder to check. 

For example, you can automate your onboarding checklists, track expiring documents (or documents that get renewed), and easily control retention rules.  That way, you are sure that your employee records are always up-to-date with all required documentation. 

Control Access for Different Teams

A big part of personnel record compliance is keeping sensitive information separate and safe.  This means limiting access to view documents like I-9 forms, medical files, or confidential folders to just authorized staff.  With the right document management system, HR can easily segment access to these files from the cloud. 

It’s common to use role-based access to allow Payroll to only add or view payroll-related documents, for example.  In a similar way, you can give location or department managers access to just their own staff files.  You can even provide auditors or legal entities a copy of just the files they request without the need for any paper.  All of this cuts back on traditional file requests and the long waiting periods associated with it. 

Take the Next Step for Your Files
