The Employees API allows applications to retrieve a roster of employees registered in the Square Point of Sale system, which can be useful in payroll and account contexts.
Prior to 2020-08-26, the Employees API was best used in conjunction with the Labor API, where you provide employee IDs to manage shifts, breaks, and wages. After that deprecation date, the Team API should be used.
