Before you can log a participant’s job or internship, you’ll need to add the employer to your Equip account. This ensures every employment record is tied to an organization with up-to-date contact and location details. Once added, the employer can be linked to any participant’s job history.


🏢 Go to Employers

  • Click Employers in the main navigation sidebar

  • You’ll see a list of all existing employers associated with your account


➕ Click “Add Employer”

  • In the top right, click the Add Employer button to open the employer form


📝 Enter Employer Information

Fill out the form with as much detail as possible:

  • Name (required) – The company or organization name

  • Phone / Email – Useful for contacting supervisors or confirming employment

  • Website – Optional, but helpful for quick reference

  • Description – Add notes about the organization or typical job roles offered

  • Status – Choose Pending, Active, or Inactive

  • Employees Count – Optional field to indicate organization size


📍 Add Location Details

Rather than selecting from saved locations, enter the location manually.

A new location record will be created from the information you provide:

  • Street address, city, state, and ZIP code


✅ Click “Create Employer”

Once everything is complete, click Create Employer to save the new record.
