Employment Documentation - Overview of the different methods to create documents

Overview

Citation HR Software is a web-based HR support system that provides you with access to information, advice and best practice guidance on all Australian employment law matters.

The system is a cradle-to-grave employee-lifecycle management tool that provides you with employment documentation which is frequently updated to ensure that your business is always compliant with Australia's complex workplace relations legal framework.

 

Methods for Creating Employment Documentation

Method 1: via Workflows and Checklists

Documents are created in the process of completing workflows and checklists. For example, if you need to issue an employment contract to a successful candidate you will need to complete the "Prepare and Send Hiring Documentation Checklist".

This workflow will provide your business with step-by-step instructions on how to on-board a new employee. In the process of completing the workflow, the system will also appropriately prompt you to create the relevant employment documents, such as an employment contract and cover letter. Workflows go beyond creating employment documentation in isolation but also account for the complexities that businesses may experience when managing employment matters. The creation of documents via workflows will ensure that your business is compliant and meets best practice standards.

Please refer to the article Method 1 - How Can I Create New Employment Documentation Via Workflows And Checklists? for detailed information.


Method 2: via Records

Documents can be created directly within a candidate, contractor or employee record.  We do however strongly recommend that you refrain from using this method as the workflow method referred to above ensures that your business is compliant and meets best practice standards. Please refer to the article Method 2 - How Can I Create New Employment Documentation Via a Record for detailed information.
