- There’s paperwork to send, fill out, collect, and organize. Most of the paperwork will contain sensitive data, such as SSNs and home addresses, that require protection.
- New employees need to get assigned to a particular workplace and introduced to computing devices that you’d like them to use for their job. They’ll need to receive certain access privileges and have accounts set up for them on your system.
- Employees may need to undergo training in how to use different devices and software tools for their job. They also need to become acquainted with different rules and regulations in your workplace and have access to general knowledge about your business.
