The files feature is great for keeping digital records of all of your company’s policies and employee documents. It gives instant access to employees and managers alike and makes it easy to broadcast to the entire company when there’s a new update to a file (such as a security policy).
You can share a file one on one with an employee, a few of ’em, the entire company. When you add a file, you can select “Requires Completion”. This will notify the employee(s) that the file needs to be filled out and uploaded back into Kin.
File completion is a great feature for new hires. You can get all of the paperwork shared and completed in advance of them starting. You get notified when each file is completed and they get a fantastic task list that lets them know which ones still need to be completed.
A tip from the Kin team
Don’t store I-9’s in Kin or, for that matter, anywhere else where you have other employee documents in the same place. By law, I-9’s need to be stored in their own, comfy location away from every other employee file.
