Who can reset 2FA

If your company requires 2FA and you or your employee can't log in to disable or switch 2FA, an Owner user can reset any employee, owner or manager's 2FA.

If you are an employee, check with your manager in the first instance to identify who is an Owner in MyHR. Alternatively, email help@myhr.works and we can find the right contact.
