People (Employee Management)

Everything to do with the people in your organization lives in the People area of IceHrm. This section explains how to set up your company structure, add and manage employees, control who can log in, and organize people into teams.

Finding the People area​

IceHrm groups its modules into areas (People, Time and Work, Leave, and so on). Use the area switcher at the top of the left-hand menu to move between them.

The area switcher with the People area selected

When the People area is selected, the left-hand menu shows two groups:

  • Manage — tools for HR managers and admins:
    • Organization Overview — a live dashboard of your workforce
    • Company Structure — offices, branches, and departments
    • Employees — all employee records
    • Employee History — a log of every change made to employee data
    • Teams — cross-department working groups
    • Users — login accounts, roles, and invitations
  • Personal — every employee's own information (their dashboard, personal details, qualifications, dependents, emergency contacts, teams, and the employee directory). These are covered in the Employee Self-Service section.
Switching back to the classic interface

If you have used an older version of IceHrm, the Legacy UI button in the top bar takes you back to the classic interface at any time.

If you are setting up IceHrm for the first time, work through these pages in order:

  1. Define your company structure — create your company, offices, and departments.
  2. Set up job details and qualifications — job titles, employment statuses, skills, and more.
  3. Add your employees — by email invitation or manually.
  4. Understand users, user levels and managers — give people the right level of access.
