Attain Efficient Offboarding by Paylocity & Okta Integration

When it comes to the significance of having a streamlined employee offboarding, organizations often seem to ignore it, undermining the fact that effective offboarding can be beneficial for the company. It not only helps the departing employee feel okay about returning to work, but it is also crucial for preventing data breaches and maintaining the organization’s security. The two issues mentioned above are the most common problems organizations encounter. Only 29% of companies offer a formal and seamless off-boarding process, and 20% have experienced data breaches linked to former employees.
This can be adapted to my use of project management tools internally to formalize the employee off-boarding process, primarily by connecting Paylocity to the Okta Directory. Maintaining compliance and data security is why organizations hesitate to automate their employee lifecycle. Let’s see how you can manage that problem with Hire2Retire.  

Benefits of Connecting Paylocity to Okta Directory

Error-free Off-boarding
In the absence of this integration, IT teams are responsible for manually disabling these accounts, making them prone to errors and delays may result in a security threat. Connecting Paylocity to Okta Directory will ensure consistency.
Maintain Security by Access Revocation
Linking Paylocity to Okta Directory ensures that when an employee is off-boarded from the HR system on termination or resignation, their access will automatically be removed from all the connected systems.
Clear Audit Trail for Compliance
Certain industries require proof of access control during audits. A well-integrated system can log when and how access was removed and maintain the global address list.
Increase Security
Manage provisioning and de-provisioning for employees, making sure no employee is receiving unnecessary access.
