Employee permissions is where you control what employees can or can't do in Sage HR. This article runs through how to get to these settings and the options available to amend employee permissions.

To get to employees permissions:

  1. Click your name in the top-right hand corner, then click Settings.

  2. On the settings menu, click Permissions, then click Employees.


Allow employees to see other employees in the Company directory and calendar

You can either have permissions set so employees can see other employees in the Company directory and Calendar, or only see themselves and their own data.

📎NOTE: An employee user can only access another employee's detailed profile if they're an admin user or direct manager. A direct manager only has access to employees they manage.


Allow employees to cancel approved time off requests

By default, employees can cancel their approved time off requests until the date of the time off.

If you don't want employees to be able to cancel approved time off, deselect Allow employees to cancel their approved time off requests.


Show time off request details in Calendar

You can allow employees to see time off details when they hover over it on the Calendar.


Other settings

You can control whether employees can edit the following fields in their profile:

  • Nationality

  • Profile picture

  • Date of birth

  • Date of birth visibility
