Review and accept your employment agreement (for employees outside the US)

Once an admin has added you as a non-US employee in Gusto, before you can be paid, you’ll need to review and accept the employment agreement, and then complete your onboarding in Remote.

We recommend starting as soon as possible, so your start date does not get pushed back.

Reminder

On paydays, you’ll receive an email from Remote letting you know you'll be paid by the end of the day.
