Overview

Sometimes an employee's emergency contacts need updating when their chosen contacts circumstances change. These changes can include needing to update an emergency contacts phone number if they change to a different service provider, or needing to add or remove contacts from the list if the employees relationships change.

The Emergency Contacts feature is where you update these details if they change, with the HR platform reflecting theses changes throughout the entire platform. This means there is only one place you need to update your details if they change, ensuring your employee record on the HR platform is always up to date.
