Indication of Work Council in the Organizational Structure?


Forum|alt.badge.img

Hi,
 

we have a typical Org strcuture of our company in Personio. From now on, we created a work council -group of elected employees who collaborate with management on behalf of the company's workforce.

Is there a way to indicate them in the general Org structure as a separate body?

Thank you!

Hi ​@Olga Lysiak 

You can’t create a separate body in the org chart per se but you can create more of a matrix org chart where you have the ordinary, typical org chart with the primary supervisor reporting line and add an additional reporting line to the management (will have to be one person, probably the CEO).

Having set this up, you’ll be able to then spotlit the CEO in the org chart and all the work council group members will then be shown in a dotted line like this:

I hope that helps?
