Employee and Manager Self-Service Overview

Every address change, leave request, time card, and "can you send me my T4" email that lands on HR's desk is time HR isn't spending on anything else. Managers face the same problem from the other side, chasing approvals and paperwork for their teams.

StarGarden Employee and Manager Self-Service gives employees secure access to their own information, pay documents, time, and leave from a desktop or their phone, and gives managers one place to review and approve their team's requests, with every change routed for approval before it reaches the employee record.

Key Capabilities

Employee and Manager Self-Service includes capabilities to update personal information, access pay statements and tax forms, clock in and submit time and leave, request and track approvals, and manage team requests from desktop or mobile.

Update Personal Information with Built-In Approval

Employees view their personal information and submit changes such as a new address. Each change is routed for approval before it updates the employee record, so HR keeps control of data quality without re-keying anything.

Access Pay Statements, T4s, and Personal Forms

Employees view their pay schedule and payroll information, open electronic pay statements and T4 tax forms, and download forms from a personal forms library, without having to ask HR or payroll.

Clock In and Submit Time, Leave, and Availability

Employees clock in and out, view and manage their time cards, set their availability, and submit leave requests, with leave balances updated as requests are approved.

Clock In from a Phone with Geofencing

The mobile time clock captures the employee's location at the moment they punch in or out and checks it against defined worksite zones, so organizations can confirm people are where they should be without installing physical time clocks.

Look Up Records and Internal Jobs

Self-service inquiries cover key dates, position, skills, certificates, education, property, relations, and notices. Employees can also browse internal job postings, track their own applications, report a health and safety incident, and search a knowledge base.

Give Managers One Place to Approve

Managers review and approve their team's requests from a dedicated dashboard, on desktop or mobile, with the status of every request visible. Managers can only act on their own direct reports, and they can review their team's training compliance.

How Employee and Manager Self-Service Works

StarGarden routes every self-service request through the same approval workflow, so employees get answers faster and HR stays in control of what changes in the employee record.

Sign In on Any Device

Employees and managers sign in securely from a desktop or phone. The mobile version installs from the browser to the phone's home screen and offers both simplified and detailed views, with access controlled by role.

Submit a Request

Employees make a request, such as a leave request, time card, or address change, from Make a Request, and follow its status from pending to approved or denied in My Requests.

Manager Reviews and Approves

The request routes to the right manager, who approves it from their dashboard or phone. The approved change is then applied to the employee record, time, or leave balance automatically.

Full Connectivity Across all of StarGarden

Employee and Manager Self-Service connects directly to the employee record, time and pay, and workflow across StarGarden, so what employees and managers submit is reflected everywhere it needs to be.

Core HR

Employee and Manager Self-Service sits within Core HR alongside Employee Onboarding, Employee Offboarding, Employee Demographics, Organization Management, Benefits Management, Balance and Accruals, and Compensation. Personal information changes are approved and then written to the employee record, and self-service inquiries read directly from it.

Pay and Benefits

Employee and Manager Self-Service connects to Time and Attendance, Work Plans and Scheduling, and Payroll Processing. Time clock punches, time cards, availability, and leave requests flow into time and scheduling, and pay statements and T4s come straight from payroll.

Workflow

Every self-service request runs on StarGarden's embedded workflow toolset, which routes it to the right approver and tracks its status. Requests appear in the same Work in Process list managers use for every other StarGarden approval.
