Manage access to hourly rates and sensitive data for your managers.

For users of the plus plan, you can choose whether sensitive data (bank details, SIN, hourly rate) will be visible or hidden for users with the “manager” role.


Managing visibility permissions

To make sensitive information visible to managers:

1) Go to the “Settings” menu

2) Click on “Permission management

3) Click on “General permissions” and then uncheck “Make sensitive people data information visible to managers”

Note that supervisors cannot see hourly rates. However, this can be changed by creating a custom role.


Other impacts

If you uncheck this option, the manager will lose the following features:

  • Manage employee hourly rates

  • Export payroll

  • Export payroll-related reports

  • View employee costs in the Payroll Period Summary


💡 How to make a field sensitive

It is possible to add an extra layer of protection to a requested HR field.

To make it sensitive, check “Add an additional layer of encryption to this field” when creating it.
