Record Keeping
Every successful HR system relies on documentation.
Small businesses don’t fail because they don’t work hard; they fail because systems lag growth, and when a business is busy progressing, the paperwork falls behind.
Documentation are records that show
- What the business did, and why.
- What communication occurred and when.
- What agreements exist and how to fulfil those agreements.
- What obligations were met, and how.
