Learn how to complete Workforce's employee onboarding

Updated over a week ago

Organizations can invite staff to use Workforce and collect important banking, tax, and personal details through Employee Onboarding. This guide details how staff can enter these details and access the Workforce mobile app for the first time.

Receiving your welcome email

You will receive your invitation to use Workforce through the email you supplied to your employer.

This email will:

  • Be sent from 'Workforce for (employer's business name)'

  • Have the subject line 'You've been invited to use Workforce'

  • Contain the steps to create your password and download the Workforce app

You'll only receive this email once your employer has sent the invitation on their end. If the email doesn't appear in your inbox:

  • Check your junk/spam folders

  • Confirm with your employer that they have sent the invitation to the correct email


Set your password

The first step of the email you received will be to set your password.

Click the Set Password button on the email to do so.

Once you click the link, you'll be prompted to:

  • Create a password (minimum 9 characters)

  • Confirm your password

  • Read, acknowledge, and agree to Workforce's terms of service (use the + Expand button to view the full terms)

Take note of the email that appears under Your email login - this will be the email you'll use to access the Tanda app.

Once complete, click the Set Password & Agree Button.


Download the mobile app

After setting your password, go back to your welcome email for a link to download the Workforce app.

Alternatively, you can also search for the Workforce app directly in the App Store or Google Play Store. Ensure you download the blue Workforce app.


Log in for the first time

Once you've downloaded the blue Workforce app, you'll be prompted to login.

Use the Email and Password that you set as part of the first step, then click the Log In button.
