Why it matters

Why businesses pick CubeHR for employee management

  1. One source of truth

    No more scattered spreadsheets, shared drives, and filing cabinets. Every employee record lives in CubeHR with proper access controls.

  2. Self-service reduces HR workload

    Employees update their own details directly. No more emailing HR to change an address. HR reviews changes, not data entry.

  3. Complete audit trail

    Every change to every field is logged: who changed it, when, and what the old value was. Essential for compliance and dispute resolution.

In practice

What this actually looks like

Illustrative situations employee management is built for. They are examples rather than customer case studies.
  • Migrating from paper records

    The problem

    A 150-person company stored employee records across filing cabinets, shared drives, and the HR manager's personal spreadsheets. Finding a single document could take 20 minutes.

    The outcome

    Records are migrated during onboarding, so lookups happen in the system instead of in a filing cabinet, and the current version is the only version.

  • GDPR subject access requests

    The problem

    When an employee submitted a GDPR data request, the HR team spent 2 days collecting information from 6 different systems.

    The outcome

    With all data in CubeHR, subject access requests were fulfilled in under an hour, with one export from one system. Full compliance, minimal effort.

Questions

Frequently asked

Is employee data encrypted?

Yes. Sensitive data like bank details and national insurance numbers are encrypted at rest. All data is transmitted over TLS. CubeHR is fully GDPR compliant with data stored in UK data centres.

Can employees see each other's data?

Only what you allow. Employees see the company directory (names, job titles, departments) but not salary, personal details, or sensitive information. Managers see their team. HR sees everything. All configurable.

How do we import existing employee data?

CubeHR supports CSV import during onboarding. Our team will help you map your existing data to CubeHR fields and run the migration. Most companies are fully set up within a week.

Can we track contractor and freelancer records?

Yes. CubeHR supports multiple employment types: permanent, fixed-term, contractor, freelancer, intern, and apprentice. Each has appropriate fields and workflows.
