Employment Contract With Form
Use a Employment Contract With template to make your document workflow more streamlined.
What an employment contract form does
An Employment Contract With Form records the agreement between an employer and employee about work, compensation, duties, confidentiality, and other stated terms. The employer completes the contract, identifies the parties, and sends it for review and signature. In signNow, upload the document, review automatically detected fillable fields, assign fields to the employer and employee, and send it electronically. The signed record can include an audit trail showing signer activity, timestamps, and completion evidence. Enforceability depends on intent, consent, attribution, retention, and applicable state law.
How employment contract signing works
The workflow moves from document preparation to assigned signatures and preserved completion evidence.
Upload: Upload the employment contract to signNow. Assign: Review and assign its required fields. Deliver: Send it to employer and employee. Archive: Store the signed record and audit trail.

Employment contract signing questions
Resolve signing, authentication, plan, and recordkeeping questions before distributing an Employment Contract With Form.
signNow Business includes templates, audit trails, mobile apps, and legally binding eSignatures at $8/user/month with annual billing. Upload the employment contract, place or review fields, assign the employee and employer, then send it for completion.
The Business Premium plan adds bulk send at $15/user/month with annual billing. It is appropriate when the same employment contract must be sent separately to many hires, while each recipient completes an individual signing process.
ESIGN and UETA recognize electronic signatures when intent, consent, signer attribution, and record retention are established. signNow provides signing records and audit trails, but the employer remains responsible for contract terms and applicable state-law requirements.
If an employee cannot access the signing email, verify the recipient address, resend the invitation, or provide a controlled signing link. Review signer permissions before changing the recipient, because reassignment can affect the audit trail and attribution evidence.
Use SMS OTP or another available authentication control when the employment contract contains sensitive compensation or personal information. For consumer-facing electronic records, ESIGN 15 U.S.C. §7001(c) requires applicable disclosures about access and paper records.
Paid signNow plans include unlimited users, while subscription plans include 100 signature invites per user annually and may charge overages. The Site License uses $1.50 per signature invite and supports unlimited users for qualifying document volume.
