About This Automation

Policy acknowledgement tracking covers drafting a policy, distributing it to staff, and confirming every employee has read and signed off. Done by hand, it relies on scattered emails and spreadsheets that quickly fall out of date.

An automated version sends requests, tracks responses, and nudges non-responders without manual follow-up. Signed acknowledgements and completion status flow directly into employee records and leadership reports.

Key features
Sends personalized acknowledgement requests to the correct employee list automatically
Tracks who has opened and responded to each policy in real time
Sends reminder notifications to non-responders without manual checking
Captures signed acknowledgements and files them against the employee record
Updates compliance status continuously instead of at reporting time
Compiles a completion report for leadership on a set schedule

How The Automation Works

The full workflow, from trigger to completion.

1. New Policy Ready for Rollouttrigger

Fires when HR finalizes a policy document and marks it ready to distribute.

2. Pull Employee List

Retrieves the active employee roster and filters it by department or location relevant to the policy.

3. Draft Personalized Acknowledgement Request

Generates an individual email per employee with their name, the policy link, and the response deadline.

4. Send Policy

Sends each acknowledgement request with a tracked link so opens and clicks can be monitored.

5. Log Status

Records the send timestamp and initializes an acknowledgement status row for every employee.

6. Send Reminder

Posts a direct reminder to any employee who has not acknowledged within 3 days.

7. Update Employee Record

Once confirms a signature, updates the employee's compliance record with the signed date and policy version.

8. Post Compliance Summary

Posts the weekly rollout completion percentage to the HR channel for leadership visibility.
