How employment contracts work
When you mark an applicant as hired, Sebairo generates an employment contract and sends it to the candidate in a private one-to-one chat. The contract is built from the job post: the company, position, employment type, workplace arrangement and the salary from the job's salary details.
A contract can be sent, signed, approved, declined or withdrawn. The candidate signs by typing their full name, or declines. Only the candidate can sign. Your side approves a signed contract or withdraws the offer.
You can edit the contract's text and salary while it is still in the sent state. Once the candidate signs, both are fixed.
What approval does
Approving a signed contract puts the hire into effect:
- The person joins your workspace as a member.
- The team chat welcomes them.
- An onboarding project and tasks may be created for them.
- Their employee record becomes active, with the salary from the contract.
If a candidate has signed and nothing has happened yet, the contract is waiting for your approval.
The contract is visible to the candidate and to the workspace's admins and HR managers. Other members cannot see it. You can withdraw a contract before or after signature, but not after approval.
