🔧 Fix this

Ideas a builder, maker or community group could start on:

  1. A standardized onboarding tracking dashboard for HR to visualize pending employee access tasks
  2. An automated escalation workflow that alerts IT and HR managers when a new hire's access is delayed beyond a set timeframe
  3. A template for new hires to formally document and request missing equipment and access from HR
