Paula,
You start by analysing the process and then re-engineering it.

Subject: HR files in business units
I'm trying to understand how other organisations handle HR-related files
and documents in a ERDMS. Any master records relating to an employee are
kept by Human Resources. Each employee has an employee file, which keeps
all information about an employee except health-related records.
Typically managers in business units also keep duplicate records
relating to their employees in parts of the shared drive that are
accessible to them only or in locked drawers. As we migrate files to an
ERDMS managers would also like to keep their duplicates in the ERDMS
just as they have been keeping them in the shared drive. Should they be
allowed to keep their duplicates in the ERDMS, considering that they do
not have access to their employees' files? Only HR does.
The reason why they do not have access to their employees' files is that
the files themselves are too comprehensive and contain too much personal
and confidential information. However, this issue cannot be tackled at
the moment.
On one hand I am concerned that business unit managers do not handle the
records carefully enough, especially when they print them out, but on
the other I can understand why they would want to keep at least the
records that they have generated in regard to their employees.
Thank you for any advice or comments,
Paula
