Administrator (admin) permissions are often required to access personal or sensitive employee information from HRIS and payroll systems. This depends on the system, but might include details like name, residence, salary, benefits, or ssn.
Details like these may be required to facilitate:
- Automatic onboarding for an employer
- Employee directory imports
- Onboarding or off-boarding of individual employees
- Collection of income or employment information for an individual
- Benefit eligibility checks for employees
- Benefit enrollment for employees
- Audits of payroll or benefits information
Before collecting any information through Finch, Applications are required to obtain explicit permission from the employer. Finch will not share any data with the Application unless you've consented to do so through Finch Connect.
The following is an example of what this might look like in Finch Connect:
Please note admin permissions are always required to push changes to payroll systems. Currently, Finch will only make changes to benefits information. We will never add or delete employees, change personal employee information, etc.
