BambooHR's email alerts will save you time by automating reminders to employees and managers. You can easily set the important reminders, and then forget them so you can focus on more important things, like building the company culture, hiring and retaining top talent, etc..

Email Alerts are found by going to "Email Alerts" in Settings. Simply click "+Add Alert" to get started. Additionally, once you have an alert set up, you can click on the name of an alert to make any edits or click the trash can icon to the right in order to delete an alert you've created. The "Send To" column helps you easily identify who that email alert is scheduled to go to.

It's important to note that email alerts will include all information in the alert regardless of the recipient's access level.
