Extension summary

Employee Home connects with your Rippling account and acts as single location for employee happenings, it's like an internal bulletin board (without the post-its). Accessible just by opening a new tab (using Chrome APIs for new tab page or NTP), every employee can instantly see the following:

  1. Quick Sign-in - Each employee’s quick sign-in bar from their dashboard is surfaced at the top of the Employee home - it’s like a bookmark bar for all their favorite tools.

  2. Employees’ Out-of-office - Immediately view your team’s PTO, whether you are at the office or working remotely.

  3. Company Resources - Rippling admins can host key resources, guest wifi password, employee handbook, or sales collateral, so everyone can access it in one click.

  4. Recent Hires - When a new employee starts, make sure everyone knows who they are no matter where or with whom they work.

  5. Company announcements - Share important announcements or updates. Rippling admin’s can customize department or location sees them, or *even who gets to post.

  6. *Birthdays - You have the option to share employee birthdays, make sure everyone feels great on their special day.

Note You must have a rippling.com account through your employer to use the Employee Home chrome extension. Contact your Rippling administrator with any questions.
