Managing your account and employment settings

On this page

Your Settings screen is organized into a few sections: Account, Employment, Payroll & Tax, Notifications, Schedule, Security, and Legal.

Account

  1. Open Settings, then Account.
  2. Under Account Settings, your Account email is shown. Tap Change Account Email Address to update it — you’ll need to confirm the change from both your current and new inboxes.
  3. Below that, tap Edit to update your name, phone number, and address.
  4. Enter your First name (legal), Last name (legal), and optionally your Nickname / preferred name, then update your Phone number and address.
  5. Tap Save, or Cancel to discard your changes.

Employment

  1. Open Settings, then Employment.
  2. Under Emergency contact, review the name, relationship, and phone number on file. Tap Update emergency contact to change it.
  3. If you’re required to provide work authorization, you’ll also see Work permit here. Tap Manage work permit to update your expiry date or document.
Note: The Work permit section only appears if your employment requires it — most Canadian citizens and permanent residents won't see it.

Other sections
