Employers can edit employee information during the onboarding process and through the employer portal once the plan has been fully onboarded. In this article, we will go over how to edit employee information after onboarding.
There are two sections that can be updated on the employer portal:
- ID & Contact Info
- Employment

From the employer portal:
- Navigate to the "Employees" tab on the left side of the employer portal. This takes you to the employee overview page.
