The ranking is the lower the number, the higher its rank. However, the employee rank '0' means it is a normal employee or staff. Those with high ranks will be able to see the lower ranking employee records or as set by their permissions
(Ex: A department supervisor shouldn't be able to see another supervisor's employees.)
