Employee documents

Keep each person's contracts, IDs, payslips and policies on their record, set when each one expires, and see who has acknowledged them.

A person's documents live on their record, under Files. Each document has a kind, an optional expiry date, and a record of whether the person has read it.

Things to know

  • The kinds are Contract, ID, Payslip, Policy and Other.
  • When a document is 30 days or less from expiring, the workspace's owners and admins get a reminder.
  • People who can edit records in Team can add, change and remove documents. Others who can see the record can see the list.
  • The person a document is about can always see their own documents.

Add a document

  1. Open the person from Team > People and open the Files tab.
  2. Under Documents, pick the kind of document.
  3. Pick its expiry date, or leave it as No expiry.
  4. Click Add document and choose the file.

Change or remove a document

  • Click its kind to change it.
  • Click its expiry, or Set expiry, to change the date. It reads, for example, Expires 12 Dec · in 84 days, and turns red once it has expired.
  • Click the × to remove it, then Remove to confirm.

Acknowledge a document

The person a document is about sees Acknowledge on it, if their sign-in email matches the Work email on their record. When they click it, the row shows Acknowledged by their name and the date. Until then, everyone else sees Not acknowledged.
