Contracts and policies

Wageloch HR lets you prepare contract and policy templates, send them for signature, and track progress from one place.

Before you start

  • Contract and policy templates must be PDF files.
  • Add placeholders before issuing documents so staff and countersigners can complete all required fields.
  • Confirm employee records are up to date before sending documents.

INFO

If you include a countersign placeholder, Wageloch will ask you to select the countersigner when issuing the document.

Contract templates

Use contract templates to issue employment agreements and role-specific terms.

Add a contract template

  1. Go to HR > Contract Templates.
  2. Select Upload Contract Template.
  3. Upload the PDF file.
  4. Review and set template details:
    • File Name for internal naming.
    • Title for the document name shown during issue.
    • Placeholders for fields such as employee name, position, salary, and signatures.
  5. Drag placeholders into the document preview where each value should appear.
  6. Select Done to save the template.

TIP

Default placeholders cannot be deleted. Custom placeholders can be edited or removed.
