Generating your own certificates and forms

Need a certificate of employment for a bank loan, a visa or a rental? Generate it yourself in KAMI, with your details already filled in. You don't need to ask HR or wait for approval. You can also download your company's blank forms and policies in the same place.

Where: your profile › Profile › Documents › Generate my documents You need: nothing extra. Every employee can use it.

What you'll find there

The window lists everything HR has shared with you, in three groups:

GroupWhat it isWhat you get
Ready with your detailsCertificates and letters, such as a Certificate of EmploymentA PDF with your details filled in, saved to your documents
Blank formsForms to fill in by handA form to print, fill in and hand to HR

What Happens Next

  • A copy of each certificate is saved in your documents, marked Created by you. You can download it again from your Documents list at any time.
  • HR can see that you created it. On your profile it shows as Created by employee. The reason you chose is saved with it.
  • Nothing goes for approval. The document is valid as soon as it downloads.
  • Blank forms and policies aren't saved to your documents. Download them again whenever you need them.

Tips

  • Check your profile first. The certificate prints what's on your profile: your name, position, department and start date. If something there is wrong, ask HR to correct it before you generate.
  • Generate a fresh copy each time. A certificate shows today's date. Banks and embassies often want a recent one.
  • Choose the reason. It helps HR see what certificates are used for, and it costs you one click.
