Frequently Asked Questions

Separate it by endpoint and access control. The employee directory (accessible to all staff) should not include compensation. Return salary only from privileged endpoints accessible to HR, the employee themselves, or their manager.

Include a manager object with the direct manager's id and name for single-level lookup. For the full tree, return a flat list with a parentId (managerId) field — the client can build the tree from this.

Requirements vary by jurisdiction. Common mandatory fields include full legal name, date of birth, tax ID (PAN in India), employment start date, and employment type. Consult your legal team for country-specific requirements.
