Dovetail's Employee Relations Case Management software notification feature is designed to make your life easier. With handy features like reminder alerts and popups, you'll never miss a task deadline. The case handler has the ability to control the frequency of notifications, as well as other technical features to manage notification-related activities.

Dovetail Employee Relations case management software provides HR professionals with a way to store and organize employee communications, documentation and files in a central database. This allows for quick and easy access to important information during a misconduct case or other employment situation. Having this information readily available can help a company take appropriate action and defend itself against any potential claims. The database is only accessible to those with the appropriate permissions, ensuring that sensitive information is kept safe and secure.
At Dovetail, we believe that effective communication is key to maintaining strong employee relations. In every Employee Relations case, it’s important that responses to employee issues are structured, consistent and transparent. Furthermore, employees should be regularly informed and educated on company policies, including those related to equal employment opportunities, anti-retaliation, and anti-discriminatory practices. Our Employee Portal ensures that employees are kept informed of company policies and procedures, helping to avoid any potential litigation resulting from a lack of understanding.
In a pandemic, the Employee Relations function must adapt to the new reality of remote work. This means having the right technology in place to allow Investigators to collaborate effectively from any location.
Dovetail's collaboration features such as Team Queues, Child Cases, and Workflow Automation, help Investigators and HR teams work together more efficiently, so they can resolve cases faster and more effectively. This saves your HR team from having to email colleagues or go from office to office to speak to each other (with the associated risk of spreading COVID), every time they need to collaborate on a case.
