We like iteration here at Justworks. While every iteration isn’t the most exciting thing ever, small steps are important. And in the words of The Police, with every step you take, I’ll be watching you. But actually, with every step we take, you’ll be watching us. In this changelog. Thanks for watching!

Benefits

Smarter, better insurance plan selections for all of your employees. So… health insurance is a complicated subject. Add local, state, and federal laws to the mix and of course it just gets easier. Just kidding. But we like things to be easy so now we use home zip codes to work out what health insurance plans we offer you and your employees to make sure they have the best coverage near where they live. Those 90210 kids knew what was up.

HRIS

Where’s my manager? Remember that time a manager left your company and you forgot to give all their direct reports a new manager? We’ve got a solution. Now, when a manager’s termination date rolls around, we automatically move all of their direct reports to the manager’s manager. This way, PTO requests, birthdays, and other employee-related matters don’t get lost. If the manager doesn’t have a manager (think CEO), the direct reports are not assigned a manager.

Design

Do you like the color purple? We’ve changed the color of our notification bar from grey to purple. Why? Because we LOVE the color purple. But also so you can see it better. So even if you missed Cynthia Erivo on Broadway (shame on you), you won’t miss any important Justworks notifications. We’ll be taking our bow now.

imho, this is the best shade of purple.
