Research shows that at least 50% of the world population is employed and that means their are tones of employees out there and they are being paid and also mostly all of them save. It is hard to imagine how big the companies pay banks to make this transactions to pay their employees and most times payments don't reach employees on time. Also In this digital world organizations still share important documents between employer and employee in the old version way which is not safe most times.

The 4th Pillar found these challenges faced by organizations and employee

FINANCIAL SECURITY AND SAVINGS

There are three major problems faced by organizations and individuals, these problems are based on the financial institutions we entrust our funds in and the currency we use for savings.

Intermediaries like banks and centralized organizations take fee to process payments from organizations to process payment. The 4th Pillar want to eliminate the intermediaries in the payment system of organization. The blockchain provides a safe and trusted platform of payment without intermediaries. This payment system will be completely automated and fast more than the traditional banking systems.
We entrust in the same organization that process our transactions to control our savings on their own terms. The 4th pillar want to give individual control over their savings and also control over their funds. individual will be able to save based on their own terms. Also nobody will take fee from individuals while saving for them.
We mostly save with our Fiat currency. Nowadays Fiat currencies are being devalued everyday. Fiat currencies just sit in the bank account without value or being invested. The 4th Pillar has created has created the FOUR token to serve as the 4th pillar internal currency. Saving with a cryptocurrency can make a lot of profit for individuals. We have all seen cryptocurrency gone from 2% to 200% increase. This will bring a good money saving and money holding platform based on users terms.

DIGITAL EMPLOYEE PROFESSIONAL DATABASE WITH AUTOMATED EVALUATION SYSTEM.

In this digital we share our digital professional identity every now and then but we don't have control over it's privacy. We can't decide we it should be and where it should not. The 4th Pillar want to provide a platform where digital identity are privately saved and shared. Also the platform will provide a fully automated and unbiased recruitment system. This is one of the goal of The 4th Pillar to provide a nondiscriminating employment system.

PEER-TO-PEER DOCUMENTATION DISTRIBUTION
