Integrate Gusto with your product—along with any other HR & payroll application
Connect your product to all the applications your customers use via Merge's Unified API to close more deals, retain customers, and expand to new markets
Sync Gusto data
Employments
The Employment object is used to represent a job position at a company. If an integration supports historical tracking of employments, it will be reflected in the data. If not, a new Employment object will be created whenever there is a change in job title or pay. The effective_date field should be used to order Employment objects, with the most recent date corresponding to the latest employment record for an employee.
