Key Takeaways

At Playroll, we know how important it is to be fully informed about critical HR processes that can affect your ability to attract and retain talent, and stay compliant every step of the way. That’s why our Product team has been hard at work on updates to improve the transparency, management and ease of use of critical HR processes and employer documentation. 

Let’s dive into the details.

Transparency For Visa Management 

Employers can now manage most tasks related to visa sponsorship on the employer portal, and get updates on where employees are in the application process at a glance:

  • Get visibility on where we offer visa services and what the associated fees are (if any) here via the employer portal.

  • Similarly, employees can indicate whether they require visa support and view their application on the employee portal.
  • The visa statuses of employees and all pending visa applications are now visible on the employer portal. Here, you can also make changes to the details of an employee’s application. Employers and employees will also receive updates whenever there is a change in the status of open applications.

All Your Essential Employment Documents, In One Place

This update centralizes all your key employment documentation, making it easier to manage documents related to all your employees.

We’ve also introduced new controls for the various document types associated with your employees. 

These controls allows for:

  • Playroll to require necessary signatures from both employees and counter signatories.
  • Ensure all approvals are seamlessly obtained where required.
  • Provide improved visibility settings to employers, so you have full control over who can access specific documents.
  • Improved access to employment-related documentation, offering clear visibility into each stage of the processing workflow.

All uploaded documents are available on the employer portal under the "Employee -> Documents" tab, where you can also filter for specific employees. Additionally, employees can access these documents via their own portal under the "Documents" tab.
