HR & Workforce

Core HR & Employee Records

A centralized, effective-dated employee record is the foundation everything else in the HR and workforce operation runs on — position management, onboarding, offboarding, access control, and audit-ready compliance for Canadian municipal workforces.

Employee records & organizational structure

  • Centralized employee master record: personal information, employment history, position, department, supervisor, employment type (full-time, part-time, casual, seasonal, council, volunteer firefighters)
  • Effective-dated employment history: every change tracked with reason codes and timestamps
  • Document management: employee documents stored and managed with controlled access and version history
  • Position management: position-based org structure, headcount tracking, vacancy visibility
  • Organizational structure: departments, divisions, reporting lines — live org chart updated automatically
  • Role-based access control: HR, managers, payroll, and employees each see only what their role requires
  • Audit trail: immutable log of every data change — who, what, when, and from what value
  • Union/non-union tracking: union status, bargaining unit, seniority fields — all on the employee record

Onboarding

  • Digital onboarding workflows routing tasks to HR, IT, and managers
  • Policy acknowledgement and document signing (e-signature)
  • IT access requests (Active Directory / Entra ID) triggered automatically on hire
  • Mandatory training assignments auto-created for new hires

Offboarding

  • Structured offboarding checklist routing tasks to all parties
  • IT deprovisioning within 1 hour of offboarding trigger
  • Final documentation archiving and exit interview workflow

Security and compliance

  • MFIPPA-supporting access controls for Ontario municipalities
  • FOIP/PIPA-supporting controls for Alberta/BC municipalities
  • PIPEDA and provincial privacy legislation alignment
  • Canadian data residency — employee data hosted in Canada
  • AODA WCAG 2.1 AA accessibility for all employee-facing portals

Recruitment and labour relations

Core HR connects directly to hiring, onboarding, and union rules — not as separate systems, but as one employee record moving through its full lifecycle.
