Contractor Employees Onboarding

You can either:

  1. Add employee details and assign them to the correct contractor, or
  2. Allow contractors to manage their own employees by giving them access to the system.
  • When a Head Company User Adds an Employee

    When a head company user creates a new employee record, they can select and assign the employee to the appropriate contractor directly from the Employee page. This ensures the employee is correctly linked within the organization and visible to the relevant parties.

    When a Contractor User Adds an Employee

    If a contractor has permission to access and manage the Employee page, they can add their own employees. In this case:

    • The employee is automatically assigned to the contractor's organization, so no manual assignment is needed.
    • The Employment Type field is read-only and cannot be changed by contractor users. This helps maintain accurate and consistent employment records.

See below video how the head company user can assign an employee to a  contractor.
 



7. Scheduler Visibility
     Distinguish between internal staff and subcontracted employees on the scheduling screen
     for better workforce planning.
