Engaging with employees is a key component within an HR system. Marketing permissions allow selected users to post announcements to employees who are using the system, ensuring that all users are up to date and on the same page as one another.

In the Wizest version, those with Marketing Permissions can create content pages to contribute to your intranet within the system.

Additionally, we've added a new page called "Branding settings" which will allow those with Marketing permissions to directly make changes to the look and feel of the company colours and logo, without the need to access the system with an HR colleague. These fields were previously only accessible in the Company Settings and accessible only to HR/Admin level users.
