How do I manage contractor personal details and reset their account email?

Updated

Available for the following plans: Standard, Premium, Platinum, Unlimited
Available for the following User Access levels: Admin      

When a contractor's personal details (e.g. home address) change, you need to update your Employment Hero platform.

This article covers how you can ensure such data changes are reflected across the entire platform by using the Personal Details feature.

Note: You can not change a contractor's email address unless you are an admin. This is the case even if the Custom security settings are set to let HR coordinators access it.
