Gusto Custom Docs are available if you're on the Complete, Concierge or Select plan. If you don't see the option to add a new document, admins can upgrade their plan at any time.
You can upload PDF versions of documents and use our drag and drop tool to map fields you would like to have completed by your team. Once completed, you can make it available for new hires, existing employees and contractors, a specific individual, or all of the above.

Hiring a team member often comes with a lot of paperwork. Gusto helps you digitally manage all the documents your team needs.
This feature is available if you're on Gusto's Complete, Concierge, or Select plan. If you do not see the option to add a new document, upgrade your plan at any time.
Keep in mind: Once a form has been signed by a team member, we cannot remove that from their profile. You can archive the form to avoid additional signings, but any signed agreement will remain visible in Gusto accounts.
