    Hi, 

    Workers are anyone who works for the organization. Contractors are independent workers while employees are fully recruited and are protected by most employment laws.

    Thank Komi.
     
    I have tried to create a worker entries with type=employee. However, i cannot find these entries present in employees view.
    It let me be confused. Please advise

    Hi
     
    Worker is both contractor and employee. So in the workers form you should be seeing both.
     
     
    Employees are hired internally while contractors are hired externally.
     
    So in the employee form you will only see workers of type employee
     
    Regarding your other comment, that you don't see the employee, is the employee active?
     

    Thanks,
    Layan Jweihan
