Who should be the admin for my company?

The features, functionality, and access of Company Admins

A Company Admin has access to everything in an Onside company account, making it the most powerful user type. Senior staff should be assigned this access to have full control and visibility over the account. Typically this would be an Operational Manager and a Health and Safety Manager. If you are currently the Company Admin, but shouldn't be, you can change it to the right person here.

For an overview of Company Admins, read on for further information.

Company Admin access

Aside from managing staff in the company as discussed in this article, having this access will also let you;

  • Set the end of day notifications for your company - Visitors automatically receive a message like this at the time you specify;

  • Enable Incident notifications of Onside Teams users
