Employing people brings with it a lot of paperwork - from
information about training, skills and recruitment to personal and
confidential details such as addresses, pay and disciplinary
records.
While much of this information used to be stored in filing
cabinets in HR offices, it is increasingly being digitised. This
carries huge advantages – but also risks.
As use of cloud-based HR analytics rises, so too does the risk
of data breaches. And with an increasing amount of regulation
focusing on how personal data is handled, HR teams must have a
clear, strict and transparent process for the storage and use of
any data they hold on their employees.
