Better compliance
Automate the tracking and storage of the documents your legal and regulatory obligations require.
Human resources
Applications, contracts, payroll forms and reviews in one secure place. Give your HR team less paperwork and more time for people, while sensitive information stays protected.
Role-based access. Version control. Retention you can prove.
FROM APPLICATION TO ARCHIVE
Follow an employee file through Constellio: built during recruitment, completed at onboarding, kept current throughout employment and protected long after.
Applications, résumés and interview notes are gathered in one candidate file, classified automatically and shared only with the hiring team.
An automated workflow assigns each onboarding task to the right person and tracks it to completion. The employment contract is signed digitally and filed straight away.
Version control keeps everyone on the latest document. A powerful search engine finds documents by specific criteria, like training certificates that expire this quarter.
Role-based access rights decide who sees contracts, payroll or reviews. After departure, the file follows your retention schedule until its disposition.

HOW IT WORKS
Each stage of employment adds documents to the same file. Constellio classifies them as they arrive, keeps their versions, and limits access to the people who need it.
THE RETURN ON ORDER
Constellio ECM reduces physical storage and manual HR processing, so your team can focus on value-added work, with a low initial investment and rapid profitability.

Talk to a specialist
No. Your HRIS and payroll systems manage employee data and pay; Constellio manages the documents around them (applications, contracts, forms and reviews) with workflows, versions, signatures and governance. How they connect is defined during the project’s technical scoping.
Access rights are defined by role, and can differ by section: for example, HR may see payroll documents that a manager cannot. Every access is traced.
Yes. Workflows assign each onboarding task to the right person, track its completion and route documents such as the employment contract for digital signature.
Each type of document follows the retention rules in your organisation’s approved schedule, including after an employee leaves. Constellio applies the rules and documents the disposition.
Most HR teams start with employee files or onboarding. Constellio’s migration, governance and support teams can help plan a phased deployment around your priorities.
