How can i change the worker category for an employee from Not Assessed to Eligible Jobholder in the workplace pension section? I am using QB online with standard payroll

Hello, @Kightley.

You can go to the Workplace pension section so you can change the worker category of your employees in QuickBooks Online (QBO).

Here's how:

1. Click on Employees at the left pane, then select Employees next to Payroll.
2. Look for the employee's name from the result then click it.
3. Go to the Workplace pension section and tap on the pencil icon at the upper right corner.
4. Select the appropriate category from the drop-down.
5. Tap on the Save button to record the changes.

I've added these screenshots for additional reference.

Hi,

Thank you for getting back to us here on the Community page, @Kightley.

You need to delete the payroll run before making any changes to the worker's category. With this, I encourage reaching out to our Support Team so you can request and have the category for your employee be changed.

To contact support, tap on Contact us from the Help menu.

Post again if there's anything you need assistance with. I'm always here to help. Wishing you a good one!
