Adding an employee class

Use the Employee Classes screen to group different types of employees at your organization. For example, you might create an employee class for union employees and another class for non-union employees. You might also create an employee class for contract employees, employees who are in training, in a probationary period, on temporary leave, and so on.

Once configured, employee classes can be used in conjunction with other criteria to create Employee Sets. For example, to apply a benefit accrual work rule to all housekeepers who are members of a union, you might create an employee set called "Housekeeping - union" and filter the set to include employees meet the "union" employee class criteria and whose job is "Housekeeping". Once the employee set is created, you can then apply to the benefit accrual work rule to the employee set.
