What is an HRIS?
An HRIS, or Human Resource Information System, is software that helps organisations manage employee information and core HR processes in one place. Talstack HRIS brings employee records, onboarding and offboarding, documents, reporting and access controls together, reducing the need to manage information across disconnected systems.
What information can we keep in an employee record?
Each employee record can contain standard personal and employment details, relevant statutory information and custom fields created by your HR team. Employees can update the fields they're permitted to edit, while HR can specify which changes require approval before they take effect.
How do we bring our existing employee data into Talstack?
You can import employee data in bulk using a CSV file. Talstack automatically links managers to their direct reports based on the imported information. You can also use bulk imports to update existing employee records.
Can we customise onboarding and offboarding workflows?
Yes. You can create workflows with tasks, notifications, document requests and approval steps, and manage them using a checklist or board view. Each task can have its own owner and timing, and selected tasks can require another person to approve completion.
Who can see sensitive information such as salary?
Access to employee information is controlled through roles and field-level permissions. Your organisation can specify who is allowed to view or edit sensitive fields, including compensation information. Managers receive access based on their reporting relationships, while HR administrators control permissions and approvals. Changes to employee information are also captured in an activity log.
Does HRIS include Time Off?
No. Time Off is a separate Talstack module for managing employee leave requests, policies, balances and team availability. HRIS and Time Off are separate modules within Talstack's people management platform.
