PICMS · Compliance add-on

People Vault

The locked-down home for your workforce evidence.

One controlled place for employee PII — DBS, right-to-work, medicals, competence, registrations — where every view is logged and special-category data never leaks by accident. The compliance layer your HR system can't give you.

Why it's different

Not a staff list — a controlled vault

Spreadsheets and generic HR tools hold personnel data. They don't prove who saw what, or stop a criminal-record certificate ending up in the wrong place. People Vault is built for the day an inspector asks.

Special-category data, controlled by design

DBS and medical data live in the vault and cross to another module only via an explicit, warned, logged share-grant — approved by a dedicated People Admin. Everyone else sees a derived signal, never the certificate.

Share-grant model · nobody else in SME compliance does this

Every view logged

Each look at sensitive data is recorded to an independent audit trail that survives even if the surrounding action rolls back. Hand an inspector accountability evidence (GDPR Art. 5/30/32), not a promise.

Per-view access log · AES-256 encrypted at rest

Onboarding that files itself

The full UK day-one set — right-to-work, contract, P45/starter, GDPR privacy notice, H&S induction, pension auto-enrolment, policy acknowledgements — collected, signed and filed straight into the vault against the right person.

Statutory evidence engine · read-and-sign with signature

One vault, every industry

Healthcare Fit & Proper (Reg 18/19), diver competence & medicals, construction CSCS, security SIA & BS 7858 screening, social-housing safeguarding — one person record, reconciled across every pack you run.

Horizontal · golden-thread into audits & training

What's inside

Everything a Fit & Proper file needs — audit-ready

Fit & Proper staff register

DBS, right-to-work, references (Reg 19) plus supervision, appraisal and professional registration (Reg 18), with an at-a-glance overdue strip.

Evidence-backed signals

A ticked box isn't enough — a signal only reads "verified" when the proving document is on file and in date.

Dedicated People Admin role

An office manager doesn't automatically see everyone's DBS. Least-privilege by design; sensitive access is an explicit grant.

Encrypted at rest

DBS numbers and professional registrations sealed with AES-256-GCM; medical documents held under S3 server-side encryption.

Per-hire onboarding pack

Required items derived from your active packs and role rules, tracked to completion with inline upload and typed-signature sign-off.

Expiry sweeps & calendar

DBS, right-to-work and registration renewals flow into a calendar feed — sensitive names dropped from any shared feed.

One person, every pack

Link scattered diving competence, security vetting and licence records to a single canonical staff member.

Employees see only themselves

Staff view and complete their own record — no cross-record access, enforced at the identity layer, not the URL.

Golden-thread into compliance

People evidence links through to audits, training and CQC without copying PII out of the vault.

Where it sits

Not an HR system — the layer above one

Keep your HRIS. People Vault isn't payroll or holiday-booking. It's the compliance-grade evidence and access-control layer an HR tool doesn't have — the part an inspector, a CQC lead or an ISO auditor actually asks for.

Per-seat HR tools already clear £125–£150/mo at 25 staff for a plain employee list. People Vault holds the same team's special-category evidence, locked down and provable — for less, and with the one thing that matters when it's audited: control you can demonstrate.
