Core HR Contextual Help

The Personal information tab

The Employee Self-Service is an option that allows employees to modify directly their information from their personal space, without asking the HR staff. They can also add document to some data sets.

The Employee Self-Service is configurable to select available fields for modification and to add a step of validation by HR staff.

All modifications are traced and dated to keep a precise history.

For the Self-Service without validation, employees can choose to either edit current information or to update it to a later date, but they can't delete their request. It is not an update request to HR staff but a direct update in the employee file. In Core HR, this respectively imply the modification of the current record or the creation of a new record.

For the Self-Service with validation, employees can update their information to a certain date and can delete their request. In Core HR, each modification request creates a new record on the updated data.

In this case, HR staff is notified of the modification request, and the action of validation email the employee to confirm the saving of the new data.

Please note that the term Self-Service does not appear in the Core HR interface: the access is by clinking, on the Cegid HR homepage, on the profile picture on the top right, and then on Personal information.
