Employment Tracking helps teams document participant work experiences, organize employer relationships, manage supervisor contacts, and report on employment outcomes. The feature connects employers, contacts, participant employment records, and employment reports so teams can keep job information accurate and easy to review.

⚙️ How It Works

Employment Tracking is built around four connected areas:

Employers — Organizations or businesses where participants work, intern, or have work experiences.
Employer Contacts — People connected to an employer, such as supervisors, managers, HR contacts, or partner contacts.
Employment Records — Participant-specific job records that include employer, job title, start date, optional end date, employment type, hourly pay, job duties, benefits, and supervisor.
Employment Reports — Exports that help teams review employer details, participant employment records, and supervisor contact details.

If you do not see Employment Tracking in your account, contact your account admin or Equip support to confirm that the feature is enabled and that your role has the correct permissions.

✅ Benefits

Keep employment history organized — Store each participant’s current and past work experiences in one place.

Support reporting needs — Export employment, employer, and supervisor details for program review or follow-up.
Improve continuity across teams — Keep supervisor contacts, job details, and employer context visible to staff with access.

🧩 Key Records and Fields

💡 Best Practices

Create the employer before adding a participant employment record.
Use consistent employer names to avoid duplicate records.
Add supervisor contacts to the employer so they can be selected on employment records.
Keep start and end dates accurate because they affect active and inactive employment status.
Review employer details and reports regularly to keep data clean and useful.
