FAQ

What is the difference between an HR EDM and an HRIS?

An HRIS manages HR data: payroll, working time, skills, reporting. An HR EDM manages the associated documents: employment contracts, payslips, disciplinary files, HR correspondence. The two are complementary and not interchangeable. Efalia Doc synchronizes with your HRIS via API so that each HR event (hiring, amendment, departure) automatically triggers the creation or archiving of the corresponding employee file, without re-entry. Read our article EDM or HRIS for your HR digitization?

What is the legal retention period for HR documents?

Each HR document is subject to a distinct legal obligation:

Document Legal retention period Verified reference
Payslips (employer copy) 5 years Art. L3243-4 French Labor Code
Electronic payslips (vault) 50 years or until the employee turns 75 Art. D3243-8 French Labor Code
Employment contracts and amendments 5 years after the end of the contract Art. 2224 French Civil Code
Single personnel register 5 years after the employee's departure Art. R1221-26 French Labor Code
Social security contributions, URSSAF and DSN documents 6 years Art. L243-16 Social Security Code / Art. L102B Tax Procedures Code

Efalia Doc automates these retention periods by document type, triggers expiry alerts and proceeds with cold archiving or purging according to your rules — with no manual monitoring from your HR team.

Is the digitization of payslips mandatory?

It is not mandatory, but it has been permitted without the employee's prior consent since decree no. 2016-1762 of 16 December 2016, applicable from 1 January 2017 (art. L3243-2 of the French Labor Code). However, the employee retains a right to object at any time. Efalia Doc manages this digitization end to end: certified archiving in a digital vault with guaranteed availability for 50 years or until the employee turns 75, automatic notification and secure 24/7 access from the employee's personal space.

How does an HR EDM make employee onboarding and offboarding easier?

When an employee arrives, Efalia Doc automatically creates the employee folder from your HRIS, collects the onboarding documents (signed contract, ID, bank details, health insurance) and triggers the necessary validation workflows. On departure, it archives the entire file, revokes access rights and generates the end-of-contract documents (work certificate, final pay statement, France Travail certificate). Zero manual steps, zero lost documents, regardless of the number of personnel movements.

How does an HR EDM ensure GDPR compliance for employee data?

HR data is among the most sensitive personal data: civil status, banking details, medical information, disciplinary files. Efalia Doc natively incorporates CNIL requirements: management of retention periods by document category, employees' right of access and rectification via their personal space, strict partitioning of medical and disciplinary data, and full logging of every access and change. Our datacenters are hosted in France, SecNumCloud and HDS certified, to guarantee the sovereignty of your most critical HR data.
