Cabarrus County has many policies that employees must sign during orientation. In the past, those policies were provided on paper; employees had to manually sign and return the policies. Human Resources staff then manually scanned the policies and uploaded them to the employeeâs Laserfiche personnel file. This process was mundane and left much to be desired for onboarding employees and Human Resources staff. Cabarrus Countyâs Information Technology Services department was informed of this broken process and quickly developed a solution utilizing current technology and improving the experience for both employees and HR staff. The need for a process enhancement prompted an integration between PowerDMS and Laserfiche. Upon assignment of policies, employees digitally sign in to PowerDMS. Next, a workflow runs to record all signature data, produce a PDF document, and route a copy of the PDF document to the employeeâs personnel file. This process used existing resources and extensive logic to provide HR staff with a new, innovative solution. HR staff could not be happier!
