Here's what you'll need to have them sign: An official offer letter. A personal data form. An I-9 Employment Eligibility Verification form that verifies their right to work in the United States. A W-2 tax form. A W-4 tax form. A DE 4 California Payroll Tax Form. Any insurance forms.

Both Federal W-4 Form and California DE 4 Withholding Certificate must be provided to newly hired employees. Generally speaking, most employers in California are required to provide the following documents with new employees upon hire: Time of Hire Pamphlet. Sexual Harassment Pamphlet (DFEH-185P)

However, there are certain types of provisions that are common to both agreements. An offer letter focuses on the key details of employment. It will often include the job title and description, compensation and benefits package, bonus structure, vacation, holidays, leave policy and start date.
Yes. Like written contracts, verbal agreements can also be legally binding and can even hold up in court when there is sufficient evidence to prove the existence of such agreement.
