HR Governance Manager Software
HR Governance Manager acts as an employee document governance layer that complements your HRIS. While your HRIS may do a good job of managing data, it fails to do a good job of managing documents.

Document Search Made Easy
What good are documents that you can’t find?
With our advanced document search capability enabled by auto-assigned metadata, you can search for documents and for content within documents.
With this feature, if the content exists, even if mis-filed, it will be found. And found fast!


Employee Documents At a Glance
The Employee Dashboard gives HR Managers a simple yet comprehensive view of previous and current employees – and an immediate understanding of what documents are in the system and associated with each employee.
This view becomes even more powerful when you add our HR Audit Manager module. With HR Audit Manager, you’ll be proactively prompted to view records and and make sure that each employee profile is populated with the required documents.
And, if you add the AI Application Studio, you’re armed with an AI function that can be used to immediately transform PDF files and paper forms into employee-ready, well-formatted web-based forms they can fill out online. Perhaps a survey needs to go out to new employees…voila!
How a Major U.S. Commercial Airline Transformed Employee Records Management for 24,000+ Employees
Background
The HR organization at a major U.S. commercial airline was relying on largely manual processes for the organization and filing of employee records.
Challange
Records were fragmented, retrieval took time, and the risk of a compliance gap during an audit was a constant concern, in a very rigorous compliance environment.
Solution
VisualVault integrated with their HRIS; providing auto folder creation, role-based security and full audit trail/version history across records.
Result
1- In excess of 15 minutes of time savings per record request across thousands of annual requests.
2- All records fully accessible and reportable. Audit response times reduced from days to hours.
AI-Powered Document Classification
AI drives this powerful feature. All documents entering the system are automatically categorized by document type and auto-filed in the right spot.
Our document layer allows for this document-level management which is so often overlooked by HRIS systems. This layer organizes, classifies and stores and makes your entire universe of documents infinitely searchable. You’ll never have missing records in our system.

Employee Data Handled With Enterprise-Grade Security
Employee records contain some of the most sensitive personal data your organization holds. VisualVault protects it with role-based access controls, full audit trails, end-to-end encryption, and compliance controls that support GDPR, CCPA, and labor law retention requirements.

Why would I need the HR Governance Manager solution if we already employ an HRIS system to manage our employee records?
