Employee Handbooks

Written Policies & Procedures Promote Consistency and Fairness

An employee handbook is an important communication tool that provides a clear and concise explanation of an organization's policies and procedures. A well-written handbook can be a valuable tool. If written improperly, it can backfire on an employer.

If your organization doesn't have written policies and procedures that are implemented in a consistent and fair manner, chances are your supervisors are making personnel decisions on a case-by-case basis with no written guidelines. This leaves the employer open to claims of discrimination for not treating employees fairly and/or consistently (whether intentional or not.)

HR One can review an existing handbook or develop a new one that is tailored to your organization's industry and individual requirements. Our customized employee handbook will incorporate all the HR policies and procedures your organization needs to ensure compliance with employment regulations, improve employee communications, and create consistency in policy application.

A typical employee handbook includes the following topics:

  • Introduction
  • Employment Classifications
  • Employment Matters
  • Compliance Policies
  • Operational Policies
  • Absence Policies
  • Compensation and Benefits
  • Personal Conduct
  • Safety and Security
  • Communication Procedures
  • Unique Topics for Your Business
  • Employee Handbook Acknowledgment
