Why is HR record management such a pain point for the Rail Industry?
As technologies evolve & compliance requirements such as GDPR are introduced, all businesses must adapt in order to remain compliant. Any large business must act to mitigate the risk of non-compliance, but some may be more risk exposed than others. Given our extensive experience of helping businesses in the rail sector at Netdocs, I wanted to highlight our understanding of their challenges & how our flagship HR product, HR:Safe, can help.
HR information in the Rail industry has historically been spread far & wide.
With multiple depots, stations, off-site storage facilities & more, many railway operators are still in the process of creating a safe, secure centralised HR services hub where information can be carefully monitored.
High levels of compliance required within Railway operations.
With GDPR, RTW & all the other HR record management required to run a business, railco's are in the unique position of also requiring up-to-date driver compliance.
The long heritage of the Railways.
Without sounding too much like David Mitchell, the first railroad built in Great Britain to use steam locomotives was the Stockton and Darlington, opened in 1825. Clearly, HR record management is a more recent business requirement, but nevertheless many rail operators still have legacy documentation which needs carefully capturing, identifying and storing.
“…captured and stored over 100 million documents for our clients over our 30 plus years of operations, with the highest degree of data security and integrity.”
Where HR:Safe fits into this story.
We are proud to have captured & stored over 100 million documents for our clients over our 30 plus years of operations, with the highest degree of data security and integrity. At Netdocs, we listen to you & collaborate to work through any backlog of personnel records, carefully index each of those records to ensure you know where your data is & how to find it.
Through the HR:Safe platform, we provide you with the infrastructure to continually capture & upload the necessary data to maintain HR compliance. Our powerful applications have the flexibility to meet all of your needs, expanding the solution from HR records management to include the management of Driver and Compliance files, solving the unique challenges within your business. No problem is too big or small for us.
Finally, our intelligent capture capabilities mean that we can interrogate data for you, run GDPR or Right To Work audits on your behalf & do so without the need to hire an army of temps to support the project.
In summary, we know what we are doing & if you have any question marks over where your Rail HR data is stored or if there are gaps in your processes, we have the capacity in 2024 to solve those challenges together.
