Waht is “Data Access”?

Data Access The data in an HRIS is not restricted to just the HR department. This is
referred to as democratization where HR data is provided with direct access by those who
need it. Executives, finance, payroll, managers, hiring managers—there is a stakeholder
for just about every source of data. This type of access brings with it both legal and ethical
considerations, including the protection of employee private information and the 
dissemination of it. Creating restrictions on access to different portions of an HRIS is
imperative when considering the design and implementation.
