Remove System Access After a Role Change

A role change can leave old permissions active. Review each system with its owner.

What this guide helps you do

List systems, confirm required access, and record removal or approval through the organization's process.

Who this guide is for

Managers, system owners, and operations staff who process a worker's role change.

Use the source document or official route that applies to your situation. This guide does not contact another person or verify external information.

Steps

  1. Confirm the role change

    Use the approved people or contract record.

  2. List current access

    Ask system owners for the worker's current roles and permissions.

  3. Compare with the new role

    Keep only the access the person needs for the new tasks.

  4. Submit changes

    Use the approved identity and access process for each system.

  5. Confirm completion

    Record the owner, request date, status, and evidence location.

Worked example

A staff member moves to a new team. The manager asks each system owner to review the old and new role before access changes are complete.

Use your own source and details. The example is not a record about a real person or organization.
