Why should employee add their nickname in ESS?

Created by Product Content Team, Modified on Tue, 27 Feb at 1:05 PM by Product Content Team


A nickname is a shortened or alternate name used to refer to someone in a more casual or familiar manner.


The employee's nickname displays in the Feeds section wherever they post a comment. This helps them in connecting easily within their organization’s social circle.


To add the nickname to the ESS portal, the employee must perform the following actions:

  1. From the greytHR ESS portal, navigate to the Home page.
  2. Click the Settings icon next to your profile picture. The Account Settings page opens.
  3. Under My Profile > Profile, click the Edit icon.
  4. In the Nickname text box, enter the nickname you want.
  5. Click Save Changes to change your nickname.
