One auditor, one sample, 30 files in two weeks.

The list of requirements comes from internal audit. For each person in the sample, someone opens the personnel file, the training management system and the folder holding the reliability check one by one, finds the evidence, copies it and places it in the audit folder. If anything is missing, an email goes to the line manager and the folder stays open until the answer comes back.

30files in the sampleThat is how many personnel files an auditor pulls for one round.
6types of evidence per fileExpertise, training, reliability, contract, secondary employment, briefing.
3separate repositoriesThe evidence sits in the personnel file, in the training management system and in an email folder.
8queries to line managersFor every gap an email goes out, and the folder waits for a reply.

Of 180 pieces of evidence, the HR officer is left with only the 16 that are genuinely missing; the rest are filed in order in the folder: 40% less documentation effort.

The 40% reduction in documentation effort is this agent's headline figure. The sample of 30 files and the eight queries to line managers trace a typical audit round; they are not measured values.

Three steps through the process.

Before every audit, the agent compiles the evidence for each person and names the gaps. The HR compliance manager assesses them.

Check personnel files against the evidence list

The agent goes through the sample person by person and matches every piece of evidence it finds to the type required. Evidence filed more than once is merged into a single entry.

Name the open evidence for each person

For every gap, the agent records the person, the type of evidence and the period. It also notes which repository it searched.

16 open items, 9 of them training certificates from the second half of 2025

Submit the audit report for signature

The agent brings evidence, locations and open items together in one report. The HR compliance manager signs it before it goes to internal audit.

What the agent does not do.

It does not release the audit report.

It presents the report with locations and open items for signature. *The HR compliance manager is responsible for releasing it and passing it to internal audit.*

It does not judge whether a gap is a breach.

It names the person, the type of evidence and the period of the open item. The compliance function assesses it from a regulatory standpoint.

It cannot find older evidence dating from before the digital personnel file.

It sits in the archive, where the HR officer has to look for it herself. Until she reports where it is, the agent keeps the item open.

The questions that come up before the first meeting.

How quickly is the HR Compliance Agent ready to use?

A pilot typically runs on your own data within 6 to 8 weeks. The agent connects to your existing systems rather than running as a separate, parallel environment.

Where is the data processed?

EU cloud, private cloud or on-premises. Processing is GDPR-compliant and models are never trained on your data. Details in the Trust Center.

Where does the figure “40% less documentation effort” come from?

It is based on experience from comparable projects and process benchmarks, not a commitment. We work out the realistic effect for your organisation during the assessment before the pilot.
