v7 FreeBalance Help

Overview

Employee Self-Service is designed to enable employees to access their personal information and make changes to non-payroll specific data. This includes enabling employees to complete training applications, travel requests and approval submissions, vacation leave (requests and approvals) and other requests as configured by the organization.

 Objectives and Benefits

The Employee Self Service module can be configured so that employees access the FreeBalance (CSSS) Employee Self Service module online, via http or secure https connections.

 Internal Job Board

 The “Internal Job Board’ feature of Employee Self Serve allows employees to search for information about available positions on their own. Employees are able to lookup the positions and organizations they prefer using the lookup feature and can choose the language of their preference.

 Career Planning

 Another aspect of Employee Self-Serve is the Career Planning feature which allows employees to use tools to plan out the courses they would like to take, what types of skills they would like to acquire and aids them to fully layout a plan for their long term and short term professional goals.

 Training

 This aspect of Employee Self Serve allows employees to search information that they would like to receive on training that is available to them. There are three sub aspects to this and they are:

• Registered Training: Employees are able to view course statuses, costs, start dates, size, manager, provider, location, and other information.
• Apply for Training: Allows employees who know of a specific course to directly access the Employee Training Application
• ESS Course Catalog: Allows employees who do not know of a course specifically to search through the Training Course Catalog
