# What permissions do I need to give my office staff to allow them to clock in/out without seeing other employees' payroll details?

## Problem

You want your staff to clock in and out. You don't want them to see each other's payroll details.

## Solution

### Update employee permissions

1. Go to **Settings ![](https://cdn.document360.io/961862ab-d0f2-4d91-bb62-a62ee8184eff/Images/Documentation/what-permissions-do-i-need-to-give-my-office-staff-to-allow-them-to-clock-inout-without-seeing-other-employees-payroll-details-image-2r6h3tjj.png?sv=2026-02-06&spr=https&st=2026-11-09T11%3A35%3A40Z&se=2026-11-09T12%3A35%3A40Z&sr=c&sp=r&sig=JeHpsQLjPOcXcLHQR%2B5IHvOSp1TrY59UX7nMJYMQxuo%3D)** in the main navigation bar.
2. In the side panel, go to **People > Employees**.
3. Click **Edit** next to the employee whose permissions you want to update.
4. Click the **Permissions** tab.
5. In the *Payroll & Admin* section, update the following permissions:
  1. Remove the *Can access global payroll settings* permission. This permission allows the employee to see the Payroll Settings screen at **Settings > People > Payroll**.
  2. Remove the *View payroll approval dashboard* permission. This permission allows the employee to see the Payroll Dashboard, which includes other employees' payroll details.
  3. Select the *View employee time tracking and edit page* permission. This permission allows the employee to clock in and out.
6. When you're finished, click **Save Changes**.

Now, your office staff can clock in and out. They can't see other employees' payroll details.
