The documents required for new and rehired employees may be completed and signed electronically via DocuSign except for the I-9. When DocuSign is used to electronically sign any documents, the completed PDF must be retained in electronic form, the pages kept together in the original order, include the DocuSign Certificate of Completion pages, and not be manipulated in any way that removes the digital signature validation of the document.
Payroll-approved DocuSign templates have been created to assist with the completion of most of the new hire or rehire documents electronically and are the preferred way to do so. Each Business Center Manager has access to the Payroll-approved DocuSign templates to share with HR staff.
