HRIS

HRIS platforms offer real-time, up-to-date data on your emissions from employee commutes. Connecting your HRIS makes it easy for you to keep track of your emissions.

Why connect your HR platform

You can get the most out of GreenPlaces by utilizing the real-time, up-to-date data from the systems your business uses every day. By connecting your HR platform, GreenPlaces can provide up-to-date insights on your employee-related emissions.

What data do we store?

GreenPlaces prioritizes the privacy and data security of your company and employees. That's why we focus on storing only the minimum amount of data necessary to evaluate your carbon footprint.

Employee Data	Reason
Email Address	You'll need to recognize your employees in the GreenPlaces dashboard when editing work-from-home settings and preferred commute methods.
Start and End Dates	We need to know when an employee started at your company and when they ended (if ever), so that we know how many days in a given year the employee commuted to work.
Employment Type	Commute footprints are typically scoped to employees only. Additionally, knowing if someone is full-time or part-time helps us estimate how many days per week they likely commute.
Commute Distance	The distance that the employee travels to work is stored, however the residence address is never saved.
