The last step an administrator needs to take for their contractors to use the platform is to send them an invitation to join Employment Hero. When accessing your contractor list, you can choose to send invitations in bulk to all pending contractors or you can resend an invitation to a specific user.
Warning
The initial invitation to join the HR platform expires within 72 hours. You can use the resend feature to generate a new invitation for those contractors who could not activate their account within this timeframe.
Important
Resending an invitation is only available for contractors whose status shows as pending. So if you have contractors whose status shows as active, they will need to reset their password. To read further details on how a contractor can reset their password, refer to the following article.

Further information
- We will create a new status in the contractor lists to show when they are invited to join your organisation has expired. It will be 72 hours after we send the reminder email.
- When they become expired, it creates a notification in the sidebar.
- When an invitation is resent, their status returns to pending and after the page is reloaded, the notification disappears.
- We have added an Invite Expired filter option and they automatically come up first on the employee list, so when people see the notification they know why immediately.
