Qualifications
Setting up Qualifications in Wageloch can be a wonderful HR tool to ensure that staff certifications are up to date, as well as assisting with rostering for some industries.
There is an ability to pick whether you do/do not need notifications of an expiry date, allowing you to receive reminders weeks out of a qualification expiring and remind the employee you'll need their documentation of proof of renewal.
Examples of Qualifications you can record:
- Drivers License
- Police Clearances
- First Aid
- CPR
- Working With Children Check
- Tertiary certificates
We've also had instances of users recording things like annual flu shots to ensure their staff are ontop of their vaccinnations - don't hesitate to call Helpdesk if you have any questions.
Creating Qualifications
- Open up Wageloch and sign in.
- Click on the Settings cog and select General.
- Tick the box for User Qualifications to enable the function.
- Done to save.
- Click on the Settings cog and Select Qualifications.
- You'll see a vacant window for your qualifications, and your staff list.
- Click the Create button; we're going to use First Aid as an example.
- Give the qualification a name: First Aid.
- Assign if it needs to be renewed: Yes
- Would you like to receive an alert, and how long before the expiry date: Yes, 6 weeks.
- Done to save.
- You'll now see a series of tick boxes and options to insert dates of attainment/renewal.
- Tick the staff who have the qualification, and insert their attainment and renewal dates.
You can create as many qualifications as required, and opt whether they need renewal or not. No renewal date? No problem.
Things like Certificate III, Diplomas and other options can be added as a record that staff have that level of education.
When a renewal/expiration date is approaching, you'll receive an alert via the Notifications bell in the top right corner. This will tell you who is affected, what qualification and when it expires. The only way to remove this alert is to update the attainment and renewal dates, or disable the qualification if they have elected not to renew.
