Some of these include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Holding regular meetings<\/li><li>Listening to staff members\u2019 queries<\/li><li>Allowing your team to be autonomous and responsible in their work<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>A strong culture of trust will make it easier for you to decide on a solid access structure, and will also alleviate any worries you may have towards certain situations <em>(a staff member leaving with client details for example)<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-spotify wp-block-embed-spotify wp-embed-aspect-21-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"Spotify Embed: Sinead Carroll &amp; Jay Williams on the Salon Owners Summit Roadshow, Building Trust &amp; Leaving Your Mark\" style=\"border-radius: 12px\" width=\"100%\" height=\"152\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen allow=\"autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; fullscreen; picture-in-picture\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/embed\/episode\/3v7Gm4aFJDgbPibdTuAjVX?si=hTmzz4iMTJGB3hHmy989ew&#038;utm_source=oembed\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Transparency<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/open.buffer.com\/transparency-in-business\/\" target=\"_blank\">Transparency<\/a> often goes hand in hand with trust, and both are essential principles to consider when deciding on staff access levels. Deciding how transparent you want to be with your team should be a priority.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some salon owners want their staff to learn all about the inner workings of the business, in which case, allowing access to financial reports, cash ups and managerial sections of your system is an advantage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On the contrary, if you feel uncomfortable with staff knowing too much about your salon, it may be beneficial to lockdown certain areas of sensitive data within the system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are pros and cons to being both totally open or totally secretive with your team, but focusing on how much you trust your staff members will allow you to make the right decisions regarding transparency. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"311\" src=\"https:\/\/d2dfxqxblmblx4.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/12005651\/staff-access-meeting11.jpg\" alt=\"staff access\" class=\"wp-image-57289\" srcset=\"https:\/\/d2dfxqxblmblx4.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/12005651\/staff-access-meeting11.jpg 800w, https:\/\/d2dfxqxblmblx4.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/12005651\/staff-access-meeting11-300x117.jpg 300w, https:\/\/d2dfxqxblmblx4.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/12005651\/staff-access-meeting11-768x299.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Autonomy<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Another important area of salon ownership to consider is how autonomous you want your team to be. Empowering your team to think like leaders can be extremely beneficial to personal and professional growth. However, that too can also come with difficulties.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To decide how much autonomy and access a team member should be granted, speak to your staff individually, gauge what kind of responsibility they expect to have. Match this with what responsibility you expect an employee to have. While your expectations may be different, consider both sides of the coin, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.phorest.com\/au\/blog\/eat-this-not-that-expectations-vs-agreements\/\">come to an agreement<\/a>. Giving more responsibility to your team can be extremely rewarding for everyone, and doesn&#8217;t have to come at the cost of your privacy or authority. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For example, if you have a beauty therapist who is excellent with words, perhaps you should give her a little more access than usual to your marketing suite; or maybe you see great potential in your receptionist and would like her to start pulling salon reports. Don&#8217;t be afraid to have a chat with your staff and work out how their skills can benefit the salon. As well as alleviating your own workload, giving extra jobs like this to your team instills a feeling of responsibility and the chance to grow professionally.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Seniority<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A key reference for setting software staff access levels should be how long they&#8217;ve been with you, and how senior their role is. If an employee is being promoted and has been an employee of the salon for years, their loyalty and trust should be duly rewarded.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As your team progresses in each of their chosen trades, it can be easy to forget areas of development that they may want to explore. Try not to forget this. As your staff move up the ranks, it&#8217;s important to allow them more responsibility and access to your system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By granting senior staff members more responsibility to handle extra financial and admin-related parts of the business<em> (such as <\/em><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"salon reports (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.phorest.com\/au\/blog\/salon-reports\/\" target=\"_blank\"><em>salon reports<\/em><\/a><em> or rostering tools)<\/em>, it shows that you appreciate and value their contribution, benefiting everyone in the long-term.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Who you hire can make or break your business.

When your team knows you&#8217;ve put genuine thought and knowledge into setting them, they&#8217;ll be more accepting and understanding of your decisions. One last thing: remind yourself not to get overly stressed about getting it right the first time around. Staff access levels are a fluid security measure that can be amended at any time to align with your business and salon ownership practices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Top Tip!<\/em> If you feel like amending your Phorest Salon Software System Access Levels and need some help, you can drop us an email on letsgrow@phorest.com, or take a look at our support team&#8217;s handy <a href=\"https:\/\/support.phorest.com\/hc\/en-us\/articles\/360007972614-How-do-I-set-up-pin-codes-assign-access-levels-for-staff-\">article<\/a>! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Have you got any tips on the topic?
