Employment Status

Overview

When you create a new employment through Remote API, in its response, there is a status field which indicates the current state of the employment at a given time. Let's take a look at its possible values:

Employment Status	Description	Webhook event
`created`	Indicates that the employment has been created. At this stage, employer can edit employee's data.
`created_awaiting_reserve`	Indicates that the employment has been created but Remote is waiting for a reserve payment before an employer can invite the employee.
`created_reserve_paid`	Indicates that the reserve payment has been paid by the employer.
`invited`	Indicates that the employee has been invited but didn't start the onboarding process. At this stage, employer can no longer make changes to the employee's contract details.	employment.user_status.invited
`initiated`	Indicates that the employee has started their onboarding. On completion of every onboarding task, the employment.onboarding_task.completed event is triggered.	employment.user_status.initiated
`review`	Indicates that the employee has completed onboarding and are being reviewed by the Remote admin.
`pending`	Indicates that employment is missing necessary fields while onboarding.
`active`	Indicates that the employment is active. The status is set to active when all user tasks are completed and the user status is also `active`. (Learn more about user statuses in the next section). On `active`, the employment.onboarding.completed event is triggered.	employment.user_status.activated
`archived`	Indicates that the employment has been archived and no longer in use. When an employment is marked as archived, the user status changes to `inactive`.
`deleted`	Indicates that the employment has been soft deleted by the admin. Accounts are deleted at the request of the users. When this is done, the user will no longer appear on the team page.
