Rhodes Retail Services, a merchandising services company, has implemented biometric electronic signature technology from AssureSign to enhance employee on-boarding process.
AssureSign is a web-hosted service that facilitates the managed processing of documents in an all-digital and secure environment. This electronic signature software provides forensically identifiable evidence of contractual acceptance with digitized electronic signatures that can be matched for authentication in much the same way as a traditional signature.
Rhodes Retail has implemented AssureSign electronic signature technology to enhance its on-boarding process for its virtual and/or traveling staff.
Interviews are typically conducted by traveling supervisors, who send applicants paperwork via AssureSign that can be signed electronically and returned to the corporate office immediately, where workflow controls ensure that information is routed to the appropriate department.
David Brinkman, CEO of AssureSign, said: With just a mouse, an Internet connection and our patent-pending electronic signature, Rhodes Retail Service is able to expedite the on-boarding process, benefiting both the company and the employee. It is the perfect solution for almost any business that requires signatures from virtual or local employees.
Chris Rhodes, President of Rhodes Retail, said: We typically has to wait two to three days to receive background check authorization from an applicant, and then another two to three days for new hire paperwork. With AssureSign we were able to cut down a six to seven day process into one or two days.
