# Permission Groups

Manage permission group members and assigned permissions

Permission Groups are collections of permissions with assigned users.

Any user assigned to a Permission Group is given the same permissions of the Permission Group.

Permission Groups can be used to define clear roles across the system for example:

* Chat Channel Administrators
* HR Manager
* Hotline Responders
* Crisis Managers

Once a permission group is in place - its members can be added or removed. This is a good way to manage consistent access permissions for system users via clearly defined access roles.

To create and manage permission groups navigate to page **/system/permission-groups**

All permission groups are listed showing the number of assigned members and permissions.
