Role permissions
Besides the permissions granted to Account Admins, HR Admins have additional permissions for engagement campaigns and demographic attributes.
Engagement campaigns
15Five's Engagement feature is a tool that allows leaders to survey employees about how engaged they are. Data-rich insights with built-in AI makes it easy for leaders to quickly identify trends in results and spot opportunities for improvement, identify areas of celebration, and inform future initiatives to drive engagement.
HR Admins have Engagement Admin permissions by default, meaning they can create engagement campaigns and make edits to existing campaigns.
HR Admins have Engagement Admin permissions by default. This means they have full results access for engagement campaigns (in other words, they can view all organization results).
Demographic attributes
Demographic Attributes are used to bring in more sensitive employee data that doesn't exist in 15Five by default: Birth date, Ethnicity, Gender, Race, & Salary. Enabling and populating Demographic Attributes allows HR admins to report on key employee trends through the lens of their workforce’s demographics, which is critical to helping people leaders uncover and address problems within their company before they become too big to solve.
HR admins will see the ability to enable demographic attributes in company feature overview settings:
Turning this toggle on causes Demographic Attributes (Birth date, Ethnicity, Gender, Race, & Salary) fields to appear on users' account settings pages.
HR admins can populate demographic attributes for employees via bulk import or using an HRIS integration.
If demographic attributes are enabled, HR admins can see demographic attributes on users' account settings pages:
Note
Only HR Admins and the employee themselves can view an employee's demographic attributes.
HR admins can filter the 'Submitted Check-ins' and 'Reviewed Check-ins' reports by demographic attribute.

HR admins can filter Company Results by demographic data (including Gender, Race, Ethnicity, Salary, Age, and Tenure) to uncover any potential areas that might need a closer look. This allows HR to approach the subject objectively, with a data-driven approach, and save hours from manually cross-comparing data.
