Natural HR recognises that all companies are different: this is why we have given administrators the ability to select which bits of information on the employee file are visible to managers in an effort to further protect sensitive information and fit the policies of your company. 

As an administrator, you can set restrictions for managers access to the employee file by going to:

Administration -> Company -> Settings -> Display Settings

Here, if you scroll down to 'Manager Views' you will be able to select the various permissions for your managers. 

The Manager employee permissions checkboxes dictate what the manager is able to do on the employee file, this includes actions like adding new employees, editing existing ones and even deleting employees too.

The Manager module permissions section allow you to decide what actions managers are able to perform in different modules within NaturalHR. These actions include adding, editing and deleting time off, add and deleting timesheets as well as managing training, expenses and performance reviews too. Depending on what your managers are expected to do in their day to day when manager their downline, they will need a different mix of these permissions.

The Manager restricted fields section allows you to choose what fields are NOT available to the manager, any boxes which are checked will cause that field to not be viewable by the manager when viewing their employee's records.
