Payroll Data Privacy and Access Review
Check who can see pay data and how it is shared.
The Open buttons send the prompt text as currently shown below to that site only when you click. Fill in the placeholders first.
[VERIFY] is an editorial flag, not a blank to fill. Wherever the prompt shows [VERIFY], check that item against a reliable source before you use it.
Review access to payroll information. Systems and files that hold pay data: [SYSTEMS_AND_FILES]. List of people with access and roles: [ACCESS_LIST]. How payslips and reports are shared: [SHARING_METHODS]. Check for access beyond need, shared logins, emailed spreadsheets, unencrypted files, old access for leavers, and printed copies. Rate each risk and propose least-privilege fixes. Return a table, a plan for the first month, and a retention and disposal note. Privacy and payroll record rules are [VERIFY] for [JURISDICTION]. This is a defensive review of my own systems. Add a worked risk list with invented findings: payroll spreadsheet emailed monthly to three people, high risk because email can be forwarded; shared login to the payroll tool, high risk because actions cannot be traced; access list includes two former managers, medium risk; payslips printed and left on a desk, medium. Fixes: use the payroll system's secure portal, give each person their own login with multi-factor authentication, remove former staff access now, and print only when necessary and shred after use. Add a plan with owners and deadlines and a note on informing affected people if data was exposed, subject to advice [VERIFY].
