Prove compliance
Documents & policy sign-off
Publish policies where people already go, and record who has read and accepted each one.
A policy sitting in a shared drive is not evidence. Elevate holds your policies, handbooks and procedures next to the training, can require acknowledgement, and keeps a dated record of who accepted what.
- Upload policies, handbooks, procedures and templates
- Target documents by role, team or branch so people only see what applies
- Require mandatory reading and sign-off for key documents
- Chase outstanding acknowledgements and keep a dated audit trail
The problem this solves
Ask most organisations to prove that every member of staff has read the current safeguarding or data protection policy, and the honest answer is an email from 2023 sent to a distribution list.
In practice
Issuing an updated safeguarding policy
The new version replaces the old one, is targeted at everyone in frontline roles and requires sign-off. Two weeks later the outstanding list is nine people, all visible to their own managers — rather than an unanswerable question.
What your people can do
- Find the current version of a policy in the place they already log in to
- Confirm they have read and understood it
- See which documents still need their sign-off
What managers and administrators can do
- Upload policies, handbooks, procedures and templates
- Target documents by role, team or branch so people only see what applies
- Require mandatory reading and sign-off for key documents
- Chase outstanding acknowledgements and keep a dated audit trail
Common questions
- Is sign-off evidence?
- The record shows who acknowledged each document and when, which is what auditors and inspectors normally ask for.
- Can we control who sees a document?
- Yes — access can be restricted by role, department or branch.
- Is there a limit on uploads?
- There is no stated limit on documents. Your specific subscription terms are confirmed in your quote.
