When we developed HR Locker we imaged that everybody would want all employees to be able to see all other employees in the Directory and Who’s Off section. Some of our larger clients said they didn’t want this. Typically this was to prevent employees in multinationals seeing employees in a different country. You asked. We listened.
After a pretty major overhaul we’ve now released the ability to restrict employees visibility to only see employees in their own office. To enable this go to Settings – Edit Office and select “Prevent employees from seeing outside this office.” Simple.
It prevents employees from seeing out of their office into other offices but doesn’t prevent inward view so you can have a head office with admins or a HR department that can still see all employees globally.
We’ve created an exception in the case where a manager has a direct report in a different office they will both be able to see each other. This ensures that sign offs of annual leave etc can still go ahead. Admins can still see everything.
We have another feature release related to admin permissions for a particular office coming up shortly.
