The platform
Fewer requests for your HR team
-
Pay & tax records
Find pay records without asking HR
Employees view and download their own pay stubs, W-2s, and 1095-Cs in Greenshades' employee self-service platform, Green Employee, so requests for copies stop landing on your HR team.
-
Direct deposit
Manage where pay goes
Employees update their bank information and split pay across multiple accounts themselves. Your approval settings decide whether changes apply automatically or wait for review.
-
Personal details
Keep personal information current
Employees update their address, contact details, and any other profile fields you make editable, so records stay current without HR re-keying changes.
-
Announcements
Put updates where employees already look
Post bulletins to the Green Employee home page and send messages to everyone or to specific departments, locations, or individuals, with an optional email copy.
-
Approval controls
Route updates to the right people
Your settings decide which fields employees can edit and how changes get approved, and pending changes stay visible to your team until someone reviews them.
How it works
From employee update to current record
From a phone or computer, employees make their updates and your review rules take it from there.
-
Employees make an update
Employees change their personal details or direct deposit information themselves. -
Your rules guide the review
Updates are accepted automatically or routed to a manager or administrator. -
Approved changes flow through
The updated information carries into connected payroll and HR records. -
HR stays informed
Your team can see employee changes and outstanding requests.

Good to know
Questions we get about employee self-service
Profile and contact information, direct deposit allocation, and access to their own pay stubs, W-2s, and 1095-Cs. HR sets which of those require review.
No. Every self-service change is visible to HR, and approval rules can require manager or administrator review before anything takes effect.
No. The employee portal is available from any device, anywhere.
Yes. Each change type — address updates, direct deposit, and others — can be set to automatic acceptance, manager review, or administrator review independently.
No. It's part of Greenshades HR, built on the same platform as payroll — which is why approved changes don't need to be re-entered anywhere else.
