Providing clearances during separation

Providing clearances during separation

Before an employee is discharged from duties and given the relieving letter there might be a set of clearances which are needed to be taken from within the company. In EazeHR the responsibility of providing these clearances is with persons who have the relevant roles.
Specific clearances can be defined as per the company policies in the setup, the superset of clearances from which these can be selected are
  1. HR clearance - see below
  2. Departmental / Divisional / Manager clearance - "refer article"
  3. Office Manager / IT Manager clearance - "refer article"
  4. Accounts clearance -"refer article"

HR Manager's Role
As an HR Manager you have two different processes which you can manage with respect to separations
1. Modifying the separation inputs given by Approver : if allowed as per company policy
2. Providing the clearance as a HR Manager
For both these you can work only on requests which are in submitted status but have been updated by the Approver.


1. Modifying Approver Inputs
You would see and Edit option on the records as shown in Aman Gupta's record above. When you click on Edit you will be able to view the form as an Approver and would be able to modify the inputs on the first tab. You will not be able to change the last working day or the recommendation on notice period recovery if the full and final is in process (or has been completed). The buttons will be locked.

2. Providing HR Clearance
This process has two distinct stages

Stage 1
In the first stage the HR Manager can do the following activities -
i) provide a clearance approval as an HR Manager and capture comments on Review points

ii) update the future contact details - click on "Add Future Contact Details" button and update the contact details which will be used for communicating with the employee after his resignation


iii) send the Exit Interview form - click on "Send Exit Interview Form to Employee", if you are sending it to the employee after his last working day then remember to update the future contact details before sending the Exit Form as it goes to the email id updated in the future details - if updated - else it will go to email ID as per HR records
