What technology is used to capture signed documents?

Employment Hero uses technology similar to the electronic and digital signature technology found in other software products. Thereby, meaning Employment Hero captures the required elements to make a document legally binding based on the requirements from countries around the world, including:

  • Making sure no document tampering occurs for users who have signed a document at the time of their intent (through the declaration made). Employment Hero also secures the document and emails the hashed documents out to the signatory's email with a unique code that verifies the documents' authenticity.
  • Implementing top-grade authentication requirements for our users, such as strong passwords and Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) to verify a user's identity.
  • Making sure throughout Employment Hero the clear intent behind customer interactions and illustrating areas that require customer consent.
  • Implementing security practises to hold documents securely and undertaking verification activities to make sure that no tampering of the digital signature has occurred. Including auditing of access and modifications made to Employment Hero.
  • Implemented auditing systems to closely monitor all the protocols and practises above to help you in any disputes in relation to our document management processes.
