Create HR Activities to send onboarding, certification, or training documents to employees
You may already know that TimeForge’s Applicant Tracking and Onboarding system allows you to upload onboarding documents to an employee’s profile. But did you know there’s a way to assign HR documents to an entire company, location, or group of employees at the same time? Yup! By using HR Activities.
HR Activities can be applied to a variety of situations, based on the needs of your business. For example, you could use an HR Activity to collect benefits information for your entire company, to onboard a fresh group of new hires, or to assign training to a select group of employees (or all employees) at a specific location. With HR Templates, you can streamline the process even further.
