Revisal & REGES-ONLINE — automatic Labour Inspectorate notification

Hire, CIM change, suspension or termination — automatically notified to the Labour Inspectorate via REGES-ONLINE within legal deadlines. Zero risk of late-notification fines.

Law 53/2003 (the Romanian Labour Code) and Government Decision 905/2017 require the employer to submit every change in the employee register (Revisal) to the Labour Inspectorate before the first working day for new hires, and within at most 20 business days for CIM changes. Fines for not submitting, or submitting past the deadline: 5,000–8,000 RON per employee, per event. 4softhr automates the whole cycle: on any HR event (hiring, addendum, suspension, unpaid leave, retirement, resignation, dismissal) the system generates the REGES-ONLINE file and submits it automatically. If submission fails (ITM server down), 4notify.net alerts HR in real time.

  • Automatic REGES-ONLINE submission on hiring — before the first working day, as required by law.
  • Addenda (salary, role, schedule, workplace changes) — submitted automatically within 20 business days.
  • CIM suspension (unpaid leave, secondment, quarantine, maternity) — automatic notification on time.
  • CIM termination (resignation, mutual agreement, dismissal) — Revisal updated on the effective termination day.
  • Revisal status dashboard: green (submitted), amber (pending), red (submission error) — per employee.
  • Automatic alerts via 4notify.net if REGES-ONLINE submission fails because of the ITM server.
  • Complete REGES history: every submission, ITM confirmation and error — archived for 5 years.
  • Local Revisal XML export for internal audit or backup.

What REGES-ONLINE is, and why it matters

REGES-ONLINE is the Labour Inspectorate's online platform through which employers electronically submit the employee register (Revisal). Since 2023, submission is done exclusively through REGES-ONLINE (with a digital certificate or token), replacing the old desktop-application version. Legal deadlines: hiring — at least one day before the start date; CIM change — within at most 20 business days of the change; termination — on the day of termination. Missing the deadlines: a fine of 5,000–8,000 RON per employee per event (art. 260 of the Labour Code). For a company with 50 employees, one unnotified mass event can generate 400,000 RON in fines.

How 4softhr automates Revisal

On any HR event generated in 4softhr (hiring via the recruiting module, an electronically signed addendum, an approved suspension, a registered termination), the system automatically builds the REGES-ONLINE XML file and submits it with the employer's digital certificate. HR sees the status of every submission and the ITM confirmation in the dashboard. If the REGES-ONLINE server is unavailable (a frequent situation at peak times), 4softhr retries submission at regular intervals and alerts HR via 4notify.net if the legal deadline is approaching without confirmation.

Digital certificate and REGES authorisation

At onboarding, the 4softhr team guides you through obtaining or renewing digital certificates (CERTDIGIT, CERTSIGN or equivalents), setting up the REGES-ONLINE authorisation and a test submission. If you already have a certificate, setup takes under an hour. If the certificate is about to expire, 4notify.net sends an alert 60 days in advance — enough time to renew without interruption.

Advantages

  • Automatic submission on hiring, before the first working day — exactly as the law requires.
  • Contract addenda, suspensions and terminations reported to ITM within legal deadlines, without you tracking them.
  • Per-employee status dashboard (green/amber/red) — see instantly what was submitted and what failed.
  • Automatic retry if the REGES-ONLINE server is down, with an urgent alert via 4notify.net.
  • Eliminates the 5,000–8,000 RON per employee, per event fine risk for non-submission.
  • Multi-entity: a separate Revisal per group company, each with its own digital certificate.
  • Native to REGES-ONLINE and Romanian law, with Romanian-language support for certificate onboarding.

Limitations & considerations

  • You need a valid qualified digital certificate (CERTDIGIT, CERTSIGN, Trans Sped) — obtained/renewed separately.
  • Actual submission availability depends on the Labour Inspectorate servers, especially at peak times.
  • Setting up the REGES-ONLINE authorisation requires one initial manual interaction with the ITM platform.
  • A newer platform than classic payroll software with a built-in Revisal module.

Frequently asked questions

What digital certificate is needed for REGES-ONLINE?

Any qualified certificate issued by a trust service provider accredited by ANSI (CERTDIGIT, CERTSIGN, TRANS SPED, etc.). 4softhr guides you through obtaining or renewing it at onboarding.

How fast is the hire submitted after the CIM is signed?

As soon as HR finalises the hiring file in 4softhr and marks the start date. The system sends the XML file to REGES-ONLINE within seconds — ITM confirmation arrives in 1–5 minutes if the servers are available.

What happens if REGES-ONLINE is down?

4softhr retries submission every 15 minutes. If the legal deadline is under 48h away and submission still fails, HR receives an urgent alert by email and SMS (via 4notify.net) and can submit manually with the XML backup generated by the system.

Can I manage Revisal for several companies?

Yes. 4softhr supports multi-entity: each company in the group has its own Revisal, digital certificate and set of employees. Reporting is kept separate per company.

Are salary changes recorded too?

Yes. Any addendum changing the base salary is submitted to REGES-ONLINE within 20 business days. The system automatically calculates the deadline and alerts you if there's a risk of missing it.
