User roles help control access to different modules such as employee data, reports, and system settings. Each role is created based on job responsibilities, such as Admin, Manager, or Employee. By assigning roles, organizations ensure that users only access the data relevant to their responsibilities. This improves system security, data privacy, and operational control.
