7.1. Policy Overview

How does an employee sign a Policy document? 

1. The employee must click a link to open and read the policy first.
2. After the policy has been reviewed, the employee can click a link to sign the policy.
3. Once the employee signs, the policy cover sheet is attached to the front of the policy document, and both are stored together in EOS. 
   
   

What is on the Policy cover sheet? 

1. The name of the policy
2. The name of the company
3. The employee's name
4. The employee's electronic signature
5. The date the employee signed
6. An agreement statement, based on the kind of Policy
   
   

What kinds of Policies are there?

1. Regular Policy
     - This policy type is the one used most frequently.  

2. Comprehension Check Policy
     - The employee must indicate (yes/no) whether he has any questions about the policy.
     - If the employee has a question, a text box is displayed where the question can be entered. EOS sends the question to the HR representative.
     - The employee is allowed to sign the policy cover sheet only when he says he has no questions about it. 

3. Acknowledgement Required Policy
     - Used when the employer wants to provide information to the employee that isn't actually a company policy. For example, this could be used to share the specific dates for company holidays listed in the employee handbook, or to provide information that must be shared by law. 
   
   

What does the Policy agreement statement say for each Policy type? 

1. Regular Policy:
   I acknowledge that I have received this employee document, and I understand that it is my responsibility to read and comply with it, and any changes made to it.
2. Comprehension Check Policy:
   I acknowledge that I have received this employee document, and I understand that it is my responsibility to read and comply with it, and any changes made to it.
   I have had the opportunity to read the document and ask questions. I understand that if I have any questions regarding this document, at this time or in the future, I should contact my Human Resources representative. 
3. Acknowledgement Required Policy:
   I acknowledge that I have received the document named above.
