Are There Employment Policies Your Workers Must Sign?

Technically, there are no employment policies that your workers must sign. The law does not require you to have your employees sign any policies. Applicants for employment at your company, however, should sign the application to attest that the information is accurate. Employees should also

acknowledge the terms of their at-will employment when they receive their employee handbook. Both of these compliance measures are accomplished with a signature, but neither are required by law in any state.
