Question

How do I quickly add a contractor?

Answer

The Quick Add feature allows you to quickly add a new contractor to your Employment Hero platform.

Important

HR Platform Integration: Contractors created in Payroll do not yet synchronise with the HR platform, and contractors created in the HR platform do not synchronise with Payroll. This means that if you use both platforms, contractors must be managed separately on each platform. HR platform integration will be addressed in a future release.

Add a contractor

Click the People menu.
Click the People List submenu.
Click the + Add Worker button, then select Onboard.
In the Add a worker modal, select the Contractor tile.
