Our Privacy
& Security Measures

Good work culture is built on trust and transparency.

The same goes for privacy and security.

They are seated in a bright, open space with greenery visible through the large windows in the background. Each person is wearing a black t-shirt, and their expressions convey collaboration and enthusiasm as they cooperate on a project.

Privacy is your priority – and it’s ours too.

Your employees’ data is at the center of Workhuman’s framework, which puts it at the core of our security and privacy approach. We apply best practices throughout our processes and procedures for protection at every layer, from monitoring to encryption.

Our privacy and security team

Workhuman’s security professionals help inform our overall approach to privacy and security. The team trains all members of the organization on best practices with security awareness and data privacy training. Additional training is provided to our IT and development teams for a bottom-up security approach.

Additionally, we also conduct third-party audits twice annually to ensure our systems are working as intended.

Make our security framework work for you.

Our core products include features that enable you to configure your recognition program to align with your own standards for security and internal controls.

This means you can enable SSO and fraud detection, granular user privileges and grouping, and more as desired.
