How do you unlock your locked Employment Hero Work account?

If you enter an incorrect password into your Employment Hero Work account more than five times, your account will be automatically locked for security reasons.

Before the final attempt, Employment Hero Work will notify you that you have one remaining chance to log in. If that attempt fails, your account will be locked, and you will need to use your email to unlock it.

Follow the steps below to regain access to your Employment Hero Work account after it has been locked.
