Employee	Can have a review (appraisal or 360) launched on them Has access to Goals and Instant Feedback modules Can participate in Opinion Surveys Appears in the employee directory. *Note: It is rare that you want to remove this from a user profile. In most cases, removing this privilege is done for external consultants who are merely working to administer and analyze reviews.
HR Administrator	Can launch appraisals and 360s on any employee in the system. Can view results of appraisals and 360s on any employee (except Administrators or other HR Administrators). Can add, edit, or delete goals for any user in the system (except Administrators or other HR Administrators) Can view instant feedback for any employee who is not an Administrator or HR Administrator (depending on visibility chosen)

Note: Managers can also launch surveys on any of their subordinates. They do not have to have any special privileges assigned. They are able to do so just by simple virtue of them being assigned as a manager to an employee.

To change a user privilege, you can click on the Manage Users page and click on the Edit button to the right of the user requiring a change in privilege.
