ABOUT THE EVENT

Many employers have already switched from a paper-based HR department to a paperless one, while many others, being increasingly buried under a mountain of paper, are actively considering changing over to electronic records. The advantages are obvious; less paper, improved accuracy, increased security, etc. But the steps to get to a paperless HR Department can be overwhelming. For example, you’ll need to be aware of issues relating to preventing spoliation claims during e-discovery, confidentiality of electronic records, the various types of electronic records management systems that are available, just to mention a few of the areas you’ll need to be concerned with. You should also be able to learn through case studies from the experiences of other HR departments.

This webinar will provide a checklist for the many practical considerations you need to pay attention to and the possible pitfalls you need to prevent. Before you make the leap and even after you have it’s important to have a full understanding of the requirements that go along with the change to a paperless HR department. Please join Melissa Fleischer, attorney at law, as she takes you through the many steps to moving towards a paperless HR department with her clear explanations of the requirements associated with becoming a paperless HR department.
