Overview

Employee Self-Service (HR-12) gives every staff member a unified “My HR” portal for their own information. Open it from HR → My HR (route /hr/me). Unlike the admin-facing Employee Directory (HR-01), the self-service portal is scoped to the signed-in user: it renders that person’s own employee record and personal information, so each employee sees only their own data. The portal consolidates the self-service capabilities that live across the HR modules — benefits, time off, payroll, compensation, performance — behind one entry point, and adds personal-information management so employees can keep their contact details, address, and emergency contacts current themselves.

​
The My HR dashboard

The dashboard (/hr/me) is the portal hub. It surfaces quick actions and a “Explore My HR” grid that links out to each self-service area, alongside at-a-glance widgets (PTO balance, next pay date, benefits enrollment, credentials, pending actions). Widgets degrade gracefully — when a data source has nothing for the employee yet, the widget shows a calm empty state rather than an error.

My Profile — personal information

The profile page (/hr/me/profile) shows the employee’s own record. A summary card displays their job title, employee number, and hire date, and tabbed sections let them view and update their own Contact, Address, and Emergency Contact information.

The Contact tab shows the employee’s current contact information, separating self-editable personal contact details (personal phone and email) from read-only work contact details that are managed by HR:

Why self-service

  • Accurate records — employees keep their own contact and emergency details current, so HR records stay correct without a support request.
  • One destination — a single “My HR” hub instead of hunting across modules.
  • Scoped to the person — the portal reads the signed-in user’s own employee record, so an employee only ever sees their own information.

Permissions

The screenshots above are generated automatically from the local end-to-end test lane (tests/e2e/hr/hr-12-self-service-docs-shots.spec.ts, run via npm run docs:shots) against synthetic seed data. That spec also runs an auto-heal gate — it fails on any console error, page error, or HTTP ≥ 400 while driving the surface — and verifies HR-12 acceptance criterion AC-9 (the profile page displays the employee’s current contact information), so the images reflect a clean, real render and are checked by the screenshot drift gate.
