Your organization’s account automatically includes the following employee types:

Part Time
Contractor
Intern
Temporary
Temporary Part Time
Temporary Full Time
Based on your organization’s needs, you can view, edit, or archive these employee types or create your own. When creating or editing an employee type, you can designate it as your organization’s default. The default is automatically assigned to new people and positions, but you can adjust the employee type manually if needed.
Only Company Admins and HR Admins can manage company settings. Learn more about managing user roles and permissions.
