Welcome to Tips & Tricks Tuesday
Today we will see how you can add contracts and opt-ins to the system such as:
- Contracts and NDA's
- Image and video consent
- Waivers
And then limit the visibility of these to certain groups of staff only.
Example 1: Create an NDA for only your active staff to view, agree and sign
Let's say you need only your active staff to sign an NDA relating to their job or upcoming work. By limiting it to active staff only this NDA will not appear on the staff registration for any new staff.

Example 2: Create a phone waiver and image consent for staff booked onto a certain job
Let's say you need all staff on a particular job to agree to the following with every shift they confirm via their booking confirmation email only:
- Consent for their images to be used for marketing material. An example opt-in statement might be something like this:
I hereby grant Staffwise permission to use photographs and/or video recordings of me taken during the event for use in publications, news releases, online, and in other communications related to the mission of Staffwise.
- Agree to a phone waiver that states they must use their phone to take photos but if they break their phone it's their responsibility. So for example, you might use this statement:
I agree to use my phone to take pictures and complete feedback after each visit. Staffwise do not take any responsibility and we are not liable for any loss or damage to your phone and property.
