Job Department Restriction

Limit job access based on departments

What is it? 

Job Department Restrictions control which jobs users can view based on department assignments. When enabled:

• Users can only see jobs in their allowed departments
• Jobs without departments are visible to all users
• Settings are configured at individual user level

This creates a simple permission system to ensure users only access relevant jobs. 

Why does it matter? 

Job Department Restrictions help agencies: 

• Protect sensitive job information
• Reduce clutter by showing only relevant jobs to each user
• Maintain data privacy between departments

This creates cleaner, more focused job lists while strengthening data security across the organization

How does it work? 

1. To restrict an employee’s access to specific Job Departments, navigate to Settings and select Job Department Restrictions.

2. The Job Department Access Restrictions page displays.  By default, there are no restrictions applied. Check the box next to "No restrictions currently applied, check to apply restrictions."  This brings up a list of active Departments. 

   

3. To limit an employee’s access to specific Job Departments, select one or more departments from the "No Access to" column on the left of the page and click the arrow to move them to the "Access to" column on right of the page.

   
   

4. The employee will only have access to jobs where the Job Department matches one of the Departments defined in the Job Department Access Restrictions page.
