HR platform: PDF document management

Overview

The PDF Documents feature is where you manage your organisation's HR documents and Employment Contracts, providing you with one centralised library containing all of your organisation's content. Having a centralised hub where you can co-ordinate your organisation's content will reduce your administration time you spend on documentation management.

The PDF Documents feature allows you to upload your PDF documents and then add in variables such as an employee's full name, job title and probation length. This feature also includes the ability to disable documents that are no longer relevant, edit the content if the information contained within changes, and delete the information if you created it in error.

HR Best Practice

Employment Hero already contains an excellent repository of HR contracts and policy documents that you can use out of the box. Before creating your own documents, you can review the Employment Hero Templates to see what documents are readily available for your country.

As this is one of our more advanced features, we recommend you also attend the Custom Content Workshop via the Hero Academy, which goes hand in hand with this article.
