What are the Authorisation roles available in WorkCompass?

A person's Authorisation setting determines what information they can access. See below for a description on what each Authorisation level does.

There are 4 different Authorisation levels in WorkCompass:

Admin
The highest level of access. A person with the Admin authorisation can do the following:

  • Access the profiles of every user on the account
  • Access the Organization Settings of the WorkCompass account to set Organization and Division Goals and edit the Plan Template of the account
  • Add / archive users
  • Adjust the Authorisation roles of other users
  • Access and edit the Organization Settings of the account
  • The reports under the Insights tab will display data for the entire company

 

Divisional Admin
A Divisional Admin has similar access as a full Admin, but with some limitations. They can:

  • Access the profiles of every user on the account for their assigned Division(s) only
  • Add / archive users for their Division(s) only
  • Adjust the Authorisation roles of other users in their Division(s) only (note: they can only give people the Employee, Manager or Divisional Admin authorisation, they cannot give someone full Admin access)
  • The reports under the Insights tab will display data for the Division(s) that they manage

 

Manager
A Manager is anyone who has direct reports listed under the Team section of their profile. Managers can:

  • Access the user profiles of people reporting directly to them
  • Create, access, edit and approve performance plans for their direct reports
  • Complete the final review for their direct reports, which will close and archive the plan
  • Re-open a review if needed
  • Insights reports will display data for their team

 

Employee
People with the Employee authorisation can:

  • Access their own user profile
  • Create their own performance plans and populate them with content, but they cannot approve the plan (only Managers and Admins can approve plans)
  • View the Progress report under the Insights tab to monitor their own progress over time
