Managing staff contracts and adding a contract to a staff member

The contracts area in School > All staff > HR admin > Contracts gives a quick view of all the contracts on Arbor, including salaries. Creating, editing and reviewing contracts can be done from this section.

Permissions

You will need the Staff: HR: Contracts: Administer permission to edit contracts and salaries, and the View permission to see but not edit these. If you don't have permission, you'll need to ask your admin team to give you permission using these instructions.

 

The grid in Staff Contracts gives a quick view of the contracts on Arbor, the grid shows all basic information about each contract. The report can be downloaded by clicking on the Download button.
