WizzHire HR · HR setup
HR that adapts to your company.
WizzHire does not come with preset rules that may not match the way your company works. HR stays closed until you have set your own rules, and a simple ten step setup guides you through the whole process.
Setup
HR does not run until your rules are in.
WizzHire does not arrive with rules already in place. Across ten steps you define how your company works, and HR opens only once everything is set up properly.
- Five steps are required, five are not. A step you skip on purpose counts as settled.
- You never set anything up twice. If you have already set a rule in HR settings, WizzHire recognises it and marks the matching step as settled by itself.
- Until the setup is finished, no changes are possible. The data stays readable, so you can check what is missing and finish the setup.
What you set
Three things that decide how your HR works.
No hidden rules. Everything an employee sees is decided by your settings, so it is always clear where each figure comes from.
Leave types and policies
Create your own leave types and, for each one, set how many days a year an employee gets, whether working days or calendar days are counted, whether approval is needed, and what carries over into next year.
Holiday calendars
You enter the holidays for each year, and you can keep more than one calendar if teams follow different holiday schedules. A holiday that falls during a leave doesn't use up a day of annual leave.
Who approves requests
A request goes to the person's own manager. If that manager is away too, it moves up the hierarchy by itself, and nobody can approve their own request. With the Advanced leave add-on you can also name exactly who approves particular types of leave.
Per person
Exceptions are set for each employee separately.
Rules can differ for individual employees. If someone started work in August, has a different number of annual leave days or follows another holiday calendar, you simply set that on their profile.
- For employees who start during the year you choose how the annual leave is worked out: the full number of days, a share for the months worked, or a set number of days.
- You decide who can change the rules. Build your own role and give it exactly the permissions it needs.
- You decide which days are working days, for the whole company or for individual employees. Leave is then counted only against the days you have marked as working.
Set your rules and see how it works.
On a short call we go through your rules and show how WizzHire applies them, from leave types and holidays to approvals.
