Foundations of HR & Employment Law
Approvals and delegated authorities for offers
A clear chain of who can approve offers and sign contracts, and limits on what they can authorize, before an offer is issued or a contract is signed.
"I need to know who can say 'yes' to this hire without getting us into legal or budget trouble."
Approval workflows and delegated authorities define which roles can approve offer terms (salary, start date, contingency clauses) and at what limits, plus what escalations are required for exceptions. They ensure consistent, lawful, and budget-compliant hiring decisions.
