Compliance and Human Resource
The Compliance and Human Resource Department supports the internal administration of AQIRI through the management of personnel, institutional policies, appointments, records, and compliance procedures.
Its work is intended to ensure that staff and contributor arrangements are properly documented, institutional procedures are followed consistently, and administrative decisions are supported by clear records and appropriate internal controls.
The Department works across AQIRI’s academic, publishing, technical, and administrative units and provides support on matters relating to recruitment, appointments, contracts, staff records, institutional policy, and procedural compliance.
Department Responsibilities
The Department manages the principal records associated with AQIRI’s staff, interns, fellows, contractors, and other personnel.
This includes appointment documentation, personnel files, leave and attendance records, role information, official correspondence, and other employment or engagement-related documentation.
The Department coordinates administrative aspects of recruitment and institutional appointments, including applications, shortlisting records, interview documentation, selection communication, appointment letters, and onboarding requirements.
Academic or technical selection decisions may involve the relevant department or academic authority, while the HR function maintains the formal administrative record.
The Department supports the implementation and documentation of AQIRI’s internal policies, procedures, approvals, and institutional requirements.
Its role includes maintaining compliance records, reviewing whether required documentation is complete, and supporting departments in following established institutional procedures.

The Department maintains personnel and compliance files, official correspondence, appointment records, internal notices, certificates, completion records, and other documentation required for institutional continuity and accountability.
The Department may support staff orientation, internship administration, professional development, and periodic evaluation in coordination with the relevant departmental leadership.
Its role is primarily administrative: academic, editorial, research, or technical performance is assessed with input from the appropriate supervising office.

Clear appointments, documented procedures, appropriate records, and transparent internal processes help protect both the institution and the individuals working with it.
