# How Do I Track Which Documents Are Missing From an Employee's File?

You track missing documents by defining a required document set per employee, then flagging any file that isn't yet complete against that checklist. On **Jestor**, this runs through **RH e Recrutamento** with required document fields.

An employee file reviewed only when a specific document is urgently needed, rather than proactively checked for completeness, risks discovering a gap at the worst possible moment.

## What reactive document checking costs

- Missing documents discovered only when urgently needed, at the worst moment
- No proactive way to see which employee files aren't yet fully complete
- Compliance risk from files missing documents that should have been collected
- Time spent reactively chasing down a document instead of catching the gap early

## How tracking missing employee documents works

- A required **document set** is defined for every employee's complete file
- The system flags any file missing one or more required documents
- HR can proactively follow up on gaps instead of discovering them reactively
- A dashboard shows overall completeness across the whole employee base

## Why Jestor fits this use case

- Proactive flagging catches gaps before they're urgently needed and missing
- This reduces compliance risk from incomplete employee files
- Consolidated completeness visibility supports organized, proactive follow-up
- This scales from a small team to a company with a large employee base

| Reactive document checking  | Proactive completeness flagging |

| Gaps discovered when urgent | Flagged in advance              |
