Given that electronically signed timesheets are cheaper, faster and more secure than scanned timesheets, is it any wonder that recruitment companies love them?














Fast, Paperless and Simple

The beauty of the system is in its ease of use. 

A contracted candidate visits the timesheet page of the recruiter’s website where hours worked are inputted and after the candidate confirms these hours with an e-signature the timesheet is emailed to the contracting client who electronically signs off on the hours. The process is fast, paperless and above all simple.

One Click Data Entry

The one click feed of completed timesheet batches into spreadsheets and accounting software cuts hours of data entry allowing staff to focus on core functions.

This simplification of back office administrative tasks reduces possibilities for clerical error.

Customer Care Excellence 

The ability to view the signing progress of a timesheet in real time enables customer care excellence; for example, a recruitment firm can see that yesterday a client viewed a completed timesheet. If this client hasn’t yet signed off on the time sheet, then a follow up call can be placed to enquire if there are any problems.

More Secure than Paper

A Legalesign Timesheet provides 3rd party audit proof of all events in connection with a document and tamper-proof Certified PDF to guarantee future integrity.

Customers are happy

“Legalesign was the only firm that I spoke with that was prepared to tailor an electronic timesheet specific to my needs.

The solution they developed is so efficient and versatile that it has significantly reduced both the processing and approval timelines”

Andrew Murton, founder of Etonwood, a thriving London based Fintech recruitment firm.
