As an auditor, do we need to worry about whether signatures are legit? Like if clients mark their initials in pdfs using simple text box, can I accept that or am I supposed to get an email approval

What is this signature for? Like is it an engagement letter or management rep? Or are you seeing an e-signature while auditing and using that as evidence?

Hi Fishes,

Does
Adidas provide any reimbursement for WFH setup ?
Thanks Adidas

Generally curious how many companies offer phone reimbursement? My last gig did not but the current one does. Legally it seems, all employers are required to do so if we use our phone in literally any capacity (video call, slack, teams, emails etc). How prevalent is the issue of not reimbursing phone dues?
