Adding an employee or contractor to your team is super easy!
Adding Employees
All you’ll need to do is head to "Employees" under "Manage" on the left-side navigation bar. From there, click "+Add" in the top right corner.
You’ll be able to fill in your new team member’s information in the next screen.
If you’re adding a new W-2 employee (full-time, part-time, or paid intern), you'll have to enter their salary or hourly wage, worker type, and exemption status. You’ll also be asked if you want to give this permission admin permissions for your company’s Justworks account.
Moving further down that page is where you’ll enter basic information about the employee, such as first and last name, email, and title. You’ll also specify who will the employee report to, department, and their office location. If they are remote employees, you can specify this here.
After you add your new employee to your company’s PTO policies, and enter their start date, you can decide whether you want to send an invite to set up their Justworks account now or later, and if you’d like to include a note in your invitation. Once you select ‘Invite New Member,’ you should be all set.
Adding Contractors
The process of adding contractors to your Justworks account is similar to the above.
From the ‘Manage’ category, you’ll find the ‘Add’ button on the same top right corner in the Contractors tab:
The information you'll have to enter here for contractors is a bit different here than it is for employees. You’ll have to enter the amount you’ve already paid this contractor, so that we can record 1099s accurately at the end of the year. We’ll also ask you for their first name, last name, and email.
Once you enter in the contractor’s title, manager, department, and office (all if necessary), you’ll also be given the option to show them in your company’s directory.
International Employees
Companies with international employees who want to make sure those employees can take advantage of the directory and documents. Admins can select ‘Non-US Employee’ as the member type when adding them to Justworks:
Adding international employees to Justworks allows them to get a more complete picture of their company, and helps them run their business. However, please note that Justworks cannot process payments to international employees.
