# Connect Folks HR with WorkEasy

The **Folks HR** integration with **WorkEasy Software** makes it super easy to handle employee info. You can just import employee details from **Folks HR** into **WorkEasy** without any hassle. This article will walk you through how the integration works, how to set it up, and what configuration options you have. It transfers employee info from **Folks HR** to **WorkEasy Software**. Plus, it automatically syncs updates every 12 hours, so your employee records are always up to date. You can even connect multiple **Folks HR** accounts and manage their sync settings separately.

In WorkEasy Software, navigate to the Integrations section and click **Start**. ![](https://cdn.us.document360.io/88d7ebef-752e-45d9-95e1-ee13bd7279c5/Images/Documentation/image(257).png?sv=2026-02-06&spr=https&st=2026-11-01T14%3A52%3A48Z&se=2026-11-01T15%3A52%3A48Z&sr=c&sp=r&sig=ZHBIBO8gNgc2HG3ymp4wKbPMQAPJC4z0EKpfR7WMK8A%3D)
