Manager Guide
Managers (manager role, often combined with employee) oversee direct reports in People Hub.
Team visibility
Routes:
/hrms/manager/team— direct reports/hrms/people/org-chart— hierarchy (organisation-wide view may be limited by permissions)
You see employees where you are recorded as their manager (manager_id / manager_email relationship).
Leave approvals
- Employee submits at
/hrms/my-leave - Request enters pending manager stage
- Manager reviews on team leave view or request detail
- Approve → forwards to HR stage (if configured)
- Reject → employee notified
Cannot approve own leave.
Pending actions
Dashboard and manager views surface pending leave and hiring requests assigned to you.
Recruiting involvement
If also recruiter or assigned to requisition:
- Review candidates in pipeline
- Participate in interview scheduling

Without recruiter role: no candidate inbox access.
