HR departments are moving payroll, recruitment, onboarding and performance reviews onto digital platforms, and each automated step creates a policy question: who owns the data, who checks the algorithm and what happens when the system gets it wrong. Five days help HR leaders answer those questions before they become disputes or fines. You map HR processes suited to automation, draft acceptable use, retention and access policies for an HRIS, and set approval and audit rules for workflows. Sessions on employee data cover consent, lawful processing, cross-border transfers, breach response and the rights of staff to see their records.
You also examine the use of applicant tracking, screening tools and people analytics, including bias testing, transparency and human review of automated decisions. Further sessions address remote work and monitoring policy, employment law implications, vendor contracts, change management and consultation with unions and staff. The programme suits HR directors, HR business partners, HRIS administrators, legal and compliance officers, data protection officers and IT leads in private companies, public bodies and NGOs. It is delivered in person, online or in-house, and a CPD-accredited certificate recognises completion.
Digital tools now sit at the centre of how employees are hired, paid, trained and assessed. Cloud HR systems, chatbots and workflow automation promise faster service and cleaner data, but they also introduce risks that many HR teams are not equipped to manage: breaches of personal data, biased screening, opaque decisions and staff concerns about surveillance. Regulators in a growing number of African jurisdictions have introduced data protection requirements that apply directly to employee records.
The Policy and Regulatory Frameworks for Digital HR & Process Automation Training Course gives HR and governance professionals a structured way to adopt technology responsibly. Participants start by reviewing the HR process landscape and identifying where automation adds value and where human judgement must remain. They then draft the policy set needed to support it, including data governance, system access, retention, acceptable use, remote work and automated decision-making. They consider how employment law, data protection principles and sector rules shape what can be automated, and how to write vendor and cloud contracts that protect the organisation.
Workshops use sample policies, process maps and risk registers, and the programme ends with a digital HR policy roadmap tailored to each participant's workplace.
By the end of the course, participants will be able to:
