Employee Data
HR teams have access to some of the most sensitive data inside a company. When you share that data, security and privacy is of the highest priority.
How can HR teams benefit from document redaction software?
HR teams are frequently involved in the sharing of employee data, and redaction is a critical component of ensuring that only the appropriate data is shared. Below, we detail some common reasons why HR teams redact documents and explain how Phaselaw's tools can help.
Subpoenas or subject access requests (SARs)
When an employee is involved in a litigation or submits a subject access request, companies often have to review thousands of internal documents and emails. HR teams are often called upon to do first pass review and redaction of these documents. You'll need to filter these documents for relevance, redact them of personal information, and redact other sensitive information.
Phaselaw is purpose-built to help non-technical users with large scale document redaction. Our AI tools will ingest files of any type, help you review documents for relevance or privilege, and automatically identify sensitive data that may need to be redacted from documents.
Employee record-keeping
HR teams may need to redact documents before they are included in employee records so that sensitive data doesn't make its way into permanent employee data systems, for example:
- Client contact information or contract details may need to be removed
- Confidential feedback may need to be anonymized or redacted to protect the identity of the writer
- Corporate IP may need to be scrubbed
Teams often spend hundreds of hours scrubbing these documents by hand in PDF tools, and Phaselaw can drastically speed up this work.
Mergers and acquisitions
If your company is going through an M&A event, an acquiring company will typically ask to review large volumes of internal documents, including employment agreements, team document, and performance reviews.
HR teams are frequently tasked with pulling this data together before sharing, and it's critical that this data be redacted so that information isn't shared beyond what's required for the task at hand. Especially when operating on a tight timeline, leveraging a modern tool like Phaselaw can help ensure that documents are reviewed and released in a timely manner.
