# Employment Type

## Overview

The **Employment Type** feature allows administrators to define the different categories of employment used across the property. Employment Type describes the nature of an employee's work arrangement — for example, whether they are a full-time staff member, a part-time worker, an intern, or a contractor. Every employee record requires an assigned Employment Type, which is used for classification, reporting, and payroll purposes.
