An Employee Handbook is a super important document to give to your employees when they join – whether you’ve got one 👤 or one-hundred employees! 👥
In a nutshell, it’s a bunch of essential HR policies, procedures, and guidelines about how you run your business. Everything from your sickness absence process, right through to how you deal with poor performance – it sets out what you expect from your employees, and what they can expect from you.

LOOKING FOR ANOTHER HR POLICY NOT LISTED HERE?
I have hundreds more HR Policies but didn’t want to overwhelm you (or your staff) by adding them all here. However, if you want to request any extra policies, then just let me know within 7 days of your purchase, and I can send these to you free of charge, which you can then tailor and amend to suit your business. Recent examples have included IVF Policy, Menopause Policy and Homeworking Policy.

MY TOP TIP
💡Don’t just whizz this doc over to your employee via email – without any upfront explanation about what it is, why you're introducing it and why it’s so important 🙏
Allow them time to go through it properly (ideally 30 days) and give them the opportunity to ask you questions. That way, they’re more likely to remember the contents – and as a result – you’ll reduce the number of workplace problems you get in the future.
STILL NOT SURE IT’S RIGHT FOR YOU?
