No. an oral contract is not as strong as a written one. And in some cases a contract that is not in writing cannot be enforced.
It would depend on what type of contract, whether the contract was legally required, any penalties to the company for not getting it signed or the worker for not signing it, and exactly what such contract was supposed to protect. There are just too many unknown variables in your question.
In general, contracts do not need to be signed to be valid, but a written contract is typically required for certain types of agreements like real estate transactions or contracts lasting longer than one year. Oral contracts can be legally binding as long as all other elements of a contract are present. However, having a signed, written contract helps provide clarity and evidence of the agreement reached by the parties involved.
A witness is not required, but it sure does help! The oral agreement can be inferred from the actions of the parties as well.
