How to Search for an Employee

Use the Search Employees field to find employees by first name, last name, or preferred name.


Who can search

Employers and Feature Admins can search for employees. Feature Admins only see employees in the subgroups they manage.


To search for an employee:
  1. From the top navigation, select Employees.
  2. In the Search Employees field at the top right, start typing the employee's first name, last name, or preferred name.
  3. Select the matching name from the results list to open that employee's account.

If no matches appear, the results list shows No results.


To filter the employee list:
  1. From the top navigation, select Employees.
  2. In the Search Employees field at the top right, type part of the employee's name.
  3. Press Enter to filter the employee list to matching names.

Other places you can search

The same Search Employees field also appears on the employer Dashboard and on individual employee pages.
