Acceptance of Documents or Policies by Employees

Acceptance of Documents or Policies by Employees

In EazeWork HRMS there are three categories of document / letters / policies which can be configured for acceptance or acknowledgement in EazeWork HRMS -
1. Acknowledgement of Letters and Documents which are issued to employees - refer article
2. Acceptance of policies during recruitment / onboarding processes - refer article
3. Acceptance of policies released by HR Manager - refer article 

Two types of acceptances which can be modelled in the system are 

1. Online acceptance (or acknowledgment) through checkbox : in this process the employee clicks on a check box and gives a positive confirmation of acceptance / acknowledgement of the policy / document / letter
2. E Signing : in this process the employee affixes an electronic signature and the document is then regenerated with the signature
Notes
Note : Acknowledgement / Acceptance / E Signing feature is available only for Web users. If this feature is activated then although documents will be generated for Non Web users they will not be sent for Acknowledgement / Acceptance / E Signing.

- refer to Managing System Documents on how to setup acknowledgement / e signing for documents and letters issued to employees.
- refer to Managing Policy Documents on how to create policies and send them for employee acceptance
- refer to Onboarding Setup on how to defined policies which have to accepted by employees during onboarding
