HR software that passes the bar
HR software for law firms
Manage your people-related processes with our intuitive HR software. Simplify and automate key HR tasks, and free up time to focus on your clients.
Our cloud-based HR software, hosted in Azure, supports legal firms with all people-related tasks. From time-consuming admin to reporting and analytics, it has all the features that lawyers, solicitors, barristers and other legal professionals need. It also gives employees autonomy to complete their own HR-related tasks, freeing up valuable (billable) hours.
Employees love Ciphr because they can:
- Easily update their personal details and manage time off
- Find and view important documents, policies and procedures
- Request and attend online learning sessions
- Learn about the company, culture, and initiatives
- View and access their payslips from a mobile, tablet or PC
Five reasons why HR and managers choose Ciphr:
- Automated processes, which help to save time
- Track, manage and provide audit trails for SMCR compliance records
- Monitor and report on planned and unplanned absences across teams of any size
- It integrates with other people management software, including payroll, recruitment and LMS
- Helps your firm comply with regulatory requirements without implementing additional responsibilities
“Introducing self-service has had a significant impact on HR. The manager or employee inputs [information] into Ciphr HR, and automatic notifications ensure that it’s verified by the appropriate person.”
GDPR compliant HR software for legal firms
A simpler working day for your whole team. Our HR software helps you take care of GDPR compliance, which is essential for any firms with UK- or EU-based staff. How does Ciphr protect your employees’ personal data?
- Anonymise and delete unnecessary information from your dashboard
- Restrict access to sensitive information, or grant it based on users’ roles
- Re-validate consent with automated reminders
- Define custom data-retention periods
- Distribute and monitor policy acceptance
- Fulfil SARs at the click of a button
Be sure of the facts
Identity and background checking can be easily integrated with third-party apps from Experian and TrustID. Run auditable, reliable screening on potential candidates — including Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) checks, right-to-work checks, reference checks and passport checks.
Be sure of who you’re hiring and enjoy the peace of mind that comes with robust ID&BC features. You can focus on building retainers, and we’ll help you deliver an exceptional employee experience.
Stay on the right track
For law firms authorised to undertake regulated financial services, our HR software helps you establish and maintain SMCR employee records from one central database. Effortlessly create auditable records of which responsibilities were accepted and when, and report on who holds each senior manager function (SMF) at the click of a button.
Legal practice HR software that sets the precedent
Automate how you welcome your new hires with our employee onboarding software, rather than burdening your team with extra hours. You’ll also help familiarise new people with the rest of the team, and get them set up and ready to go from day one.
Our HR software helps employees more easily manage their compliance training, and lets them manage their absences without relying on you. You’ll be able to easily identify absence patterns, approve or decline team time off requests, and identify any potentially problematic absences.
Set the precedent for new starters and tenured team members alike. Give your people the platform to manage their HR admin tasks, and give HR more time to focus on what matters.
