What are teams and how do I use them
When you create a team, you're not just grouping employees together, you're creating a workflow where you can easily share policies, documents, and tasks with specific groups of employees. This means no more information overload for your new hires as they'll only receive the information and materials that are relevant to their roles. And the best part? You can assign employees to multiple teams to give them an even more personalised experience.
Manager Access and Permissions
By default, a primary or secondary manager will be able to see the following information in their reporting employee's files:
- Employee Overview: Managers will get an at-a-glance view of each employee's name, job title, teams and work email.
- Leave Details: Primary/Managers will be able to view, accept or decline an employee's leave request. If your payroll platform is integrated with Employment Hero, managers can easily check an employee's current leave balance.
- Company Assets: Managers can view any company assets that have been assigned to your employees, ensuring they have the tools they need to do their job.
- Performance Reviews: Primary Managers can keep track of their team's progress and growth with the performance review feature.
- Additional Information: For platinum users, there's the option to add custom fields to each employee's profile for even more tailored information. Managers will be able to view these fields.
