Employee Vaults - Access?
Hello all, our business environment requires that all passwords should be visible and reclaimable in the event that the employee leaves.
This is fine with a shared vault, as other users have access as they may share them, or for redundancy.
However we have a particular team where a shared vault isn't suitable, as each user has their own access to certain data. So in this case the Employee vault would be perfect. Except that I'm almost certain that these vaults can't be accessed by Overwatch roles, like Administrators or Owners, even though I've seen language on various docs from 1password that users with the right permissions can access them.
Problem is I can't find these permissions to enable them to be visible when needed.
What do you suggest is the best solution for this? Accounts are locked to business email addresses but reclaiming an account just because someone is on holiday and something important is stored in the Employee Vault sounds excessive...

Recovery of the account and reset of the password would be the only option. No other options exist to access the employee vault. It's private by design.
