Employee Signatures

System

Are employee signatures required on all forms that affect or would affect their status - such as benefits, wages, etc?

They are not generally required, BUT most employers do get signatures for proof that the information was communicated to the employee.

For most at-will employees, the employer can change the terms and conditions of employment for the FUTURE by giving notice to the employee. So by having a signature, the employer can prove that the employee got notice.

If the employee has a contract or specific agreement, a signature may be required for a change in the terms and conditions.

Good Luck!
