# How to Add Employees – Step 2: Approve Under Needs Attention
## Use this article as a guide on how to approve newly added employees through "Needs Attention" to complete the onboarding process.
For your new employees to gain access to PaidHR, you’ll need to approve them under **Needs Attention**. After adding employees through self-onboarding or manual entry, they will automatically appear in the **Needs Attention**. This sub-feature highlights employees who require your approval before their setup is complete.
1\. Scroll to **People** and click on **Needs Attention**.
2\. Select the employee you would like to approve and click on **Review and Approve**.

3\. To batch approve, select all the employees you want to approve and click on **Batch Approve** in the top right corner of your screen.

In addition to approving employees, you can also take other actions within the **Needs Attention section.** When you navigate to this section, each employee listed will have action buttons next to their name:
---
**Re-invite**: If an employee hasn't completed their self-onboarding, click **Re-invite** to send them a new onboarding email.
**Edit:** To update any details (such as job title, or contact information), click on **Edit**, make the necessary changes, and save.
**Delete:** If you need to remove an employee who was added in error or is no longer meant to be onboarded, click **Delete** to remove their record from the system.
| These actions help ensure your employee list stays accurate and up to date before final approval. |
