As an organisation, you can use tags to group employees and identify specific scenarios within pay condition rule sets. If your organisation has installed a pre-built award, tags are provided automatically, reducing the time spent ensuring correct pay conditions and effective award interpretation.

The tag feature also allows you to create custom tags and assign them to employees as needed. You can easily reassign tags if employee requirements change, update the tag information, or delete tags when they are no longer necessary.

This article explains how to create a new tag in your system. If you want to add a tag to an employee, see this article.
