Templates / Attestation Flow

Employee handbook template

For employees confirming they received the handbook on working time, leave, pay, conduct and where to get help. It asks for at least three minutes of reading and one quiz question, and is acknowledged once rather than re-attested.

• App: Attestation Flow for Confluence
• Category: HR
• Edition: Picking the pack works in every edition; the paid settings and the starter text need a paid licence
• Re-acknowledge: not preset

Note shown to readers:

By acknowledging, you confirm you have received and read the employee handbook.

Template. This template is a starting point, not legal advice. Adapt it to your organisation, your contracts and the law that applies to you, and have it reviewed by a qualified professional before you rely on it.

Welcome

Help

1. Who do you contact first when you are sick and cannot work?
   • Nobody
   • Your manager, before your usual start time
   • A customer

Edit a Confluence page, insert the Attestation Flow macro, open the requirement editor and pick the pack under Start from a policy pack. It fills the note and the due date; with a paid licence it also fills the re-acknowledgement window, the minimum reading time and the quiz, and can add the starter text to the page. Required readers are never preset: you choose them.
