Upload documents to your contractor's profile (for admins)

Once you’ve hired a contractor, you can upload important documents to their Gusto account using the document upload tool. This creates a digital file for all the contractor’s important information, making it easy for you and them to access at any time.

If you’re on the Plus or Premium plan, you also have access to the Custom Documents feature. You can upgrade your plan at any time to use this feature.

Upload a document (for admins)

1. Go to the People section and select Team members.
2. Click on your contractor's name.
3. Go to the Documents tab.
   • If you do not see the tab, the Primary admin may need to update your permissions. 
4. On the right side, above the “Actions” column, click Upload New Document and choose the file you want to upload.
   • Supported file types: PDF, DOC, DOCX, XLS, XLSX, TXT, JPEG, PNG, and GIF.
5. After selecting the file, type a description for the document that will show in Gusto.
6. Click Upload.

Once the file is uploaded, both you and your contractor will be able to see it.
