Determining your role

To find out what your role is:

1. From My Workspace, click Worksite Setup.
   
   
2. You will see a list of the sites to which you belong.
   
   
   • If a checkbox is next to the name of the site, you may check the box and click Edit. On this screen, you will see a list of the site's members. Next to the members' names, you will see a drop-down menu that shows the role.
     
     
   • If no checkbox is next to the name of the site, your role is limited to merely accessing and participating in the site; you do not have full permissions. While you are a member of that site, you cannot change your role or that of others.
