Employer Portal Setup

Enterprise Health offers various portal options, depending on the needs of the client. The Employer Portal, often referred to as the Supervisor Portal, Agency Portal, or Leadership Portal, streamlines employee engagement and tracking, offering easy access to due lists, employee work statuses, as well as health surveillance. Supervisors can not only view their personal information, but they can also view their employees’ restrictions, lost time, work status, or any additional information custom to the business needs. To more fully address preferred configurations and review available options and features, utilize the Provider Management side menu to access and edit the Employer Portal , as needed.

Employer Portal

To begin configuring the Employer Portal, it first needs to be enabled from the General Configuration section of the Portal Setup tab. Utilize the Provider Management search to locate the Provider Organization (PO) chart that will house the portal configurations.
