Assigning/Removing Employer Admin Permission

From time to time, your organization may need to update which OHS Resource Centre accounts have Employer Admin permissions. A current Employer Admin can assign these permissions to another account or remove them when they are no longer needed.

Assign/Remove Permission

Applies to:

  • OHS Resource Centre users with Employer Admin permissions

Note 

This function only applies to users who both have:

  • Log-in via: Health Authority
  • Account Type: General HA Staff or Employer Practitioner

After logging in to the OHS Resource Centre with your Employer Admin account, select the ‘Dashboard’ tab:

You will see the ‘User Directory’, which displays the list of users with the same health authority email domain as you, who have set up an account in the OHS Resource Centre.
