Dear @boneill,

Welcome to the Personio Community, we are thrilled to see you here 🥳.

I would be happy to support you with your difficulties regarding the e-signature. Could you please share more details with us? Why exactly is this functionality not working as you expected?

Thank you in advance for your answer!

Greetings from Munich,

Andrea

Hi Andrea, 

Many thanks for your response.

The signature capability in Personio does not meet the requirements of our legal team. Currently our legal team accept signature from Hello Sign and Adobe unfortunately the signatures in Personio do not represent / resemble signatures.

Hope this helps. 

Kind regards,

Brenda 

Hi Brenda,

Thanks for reaching out to us! My name is Erika, and I am a Product Expert for the Document Management product. I’d love to get more context on the issue you are facing to understand better;

 -  From your legal teams perspective, what is our current framework not providing that is meeting your legal teams requirement? Are there any specific measures they have identified that you could provide additional detail on? 

 -  Are these requirements driven by any kind of country specific regulations? If so, what countries do you operate in? 

 - What documents would you like to use eSignature for in your company (Employment Contracts, Salary Agreements etc) 

If you would like to discuss in more detail please let me know, I’d love to get your feedback to share with our Product team for additional context.

Have a great rest of your day!

Erika

Hi Erika,

As an NGO we have to meet the audit requirements of donors, unfortunately the e-signature facility in personio does not meet these requirements.

The e-signatures is especially important on all company policies; annual renewal of policies; contracts of employment etc. The signature must be legible, unfortunately the way the e-signature is set up in personio it is not acceptable to our donors. 

The e-signature available in abode and hello sign is acceptable to donors.

Kind regards,

Brenda
