Joiner-Mover-Leaver (JML)

Definition

The employee lifecycle processes covering when employees join, change roles, or leave an organization.

Overview

Joiner-Mover-Leaver (JML) describes the key transitions in an employee's relationship with an organization. Joiners need accounts, access, and equipment. Movers may need access changes when they change roles or departments. Leavers need access revoked and assets returned. Automating JML processes ensures security, compliance, and efficiency. JML automation typically involves integration between HR systems and IT provisioning tools.

Why It Matters

Manual JML processes create security gaps at every employee transition. Delayed provisioning for joiners wastes productive days, missed access changes for movers violate least-privilege principles, and incomplete offboarding for leavers is a top audit finding.

How New Odyssey Helps

New Odyssey automates JML workflows by connecting HR systems with IAM, IT provisioning, and facilities management—ensuring every transition is handled consistently, securely, and within minutes rather than days.
