Emails the Employment Hero platform sends out to users

EH Content Team

On the Employment Hero HR platform, there are several email notifications that will automatically trigger, based on actions undertaken by either the platform or the user. We have listed these notifications below, including the email subject, who the platform delivers the message to, and what trigger causes the email to go from the platform.

For employees who do not have a company email populated within their HR File, and an email is triggered to the company email, this email will instead be sent to the employee’s account email. In most cases, this will be their personal email.

Important

To see a concise list of emails a payroll admin will recieve as well as to manage your organisation's payroll admin list, refer to the following article.
