Steps to Permanently Delete Employees

  • Log in as the Primary Admin:

    • Ensure that you are logged into HRLocker as the Primary Admin. Only this user has permission to permanently delete employees.

  • Filter by Status: Terminated:

    • In the directory, select Terminated from the Status dropdown menu to view a list of employees who have already been terminated.

    • After filtering by terminated employees, a Delete Employees button will become visible.
  • Select Employees to Delete:

    • A list of all terminated employees will be displayed. You can filter this list by office, department, or team, or use the search bar to find a specific employee.
    • Check the box next to the employee(s) you want to delete.
