Paper Trail is an online employment contract management technology for UK SME’s to ensure that they become, and remain, compliant with UK employment legislation.

The PaperTrail solution generates and track all formal employee communications online, including the Employment Contract.

  • The PaperTrail system hosts a constantly maintained, tailored Employee Handbook that is constantly updated automatically whenever there are changes in legislation
  • An Employee Summary record creates an electronic paper trail which provides the necessary evidence that the appropriate communications and processes have been followed if the worst happens and you are taken to tribunal.
  • The PaperTrail system will remind you when any action is required, such as the need to an issue updated clause based on new legislation or ensure that an employee has acknowledged receipt of their contract.
