Enabled Leaver filter option in New Employee List for Proxy Managers with appropriate permissions, displaying only leavers they have access to manage.

Fixed employee navigation to correctly maintain sorted order and filter context when browsing between employee profiles, ensuring accurate position counts and next/previous navigation.

Improved New Employee List loading performance.
Bug Fixes:
In Employee Performance, employees can now see managers answers on performance reviews once they have been completed.
HR Assistant has been updated to be better at dealing with questions about employees based on their start dates.
Fixed an issue where consultants were getting an oops error on employee pages.
