Frequently Asked Questions

How does a Custom Employee Handbook help my business?

A Custom Employee Handbook helps to clarify company policies, procedures, and expectations for employees. This can improve overall communication and understanding within the company, reduce misunderstandings and disputes, and provide protection for the company in case of legal issues.

How extensive should an Employee Handbook be?

The size of an Employee Handbook depends on the size and complexity of your business, as well as the specific policies and practices you want to include. An Employee Handbook should be comprehensive enough to cover all relevant policies but concise enough to be easily understood by employees.

Can I use a template employee handbook?

While using a template for an Employee Handbook may seem easy, it is not recommended. Templates may not be up-to-date with current employment laws, and they may not accurately reflect your company’s unique culture, policies, and practices. It is best to work with a professional to create a custom Employee Handbook that meets the specific needs of your business.

What are the must-have policies for an Employee Handbook?

There are a few essential policies that all Employee Handbooks should include: Anti-Harassment and Discrimination, Health and Safety, Leave and Time Off, and Disciplinary Procedures. However, the specific policies necessary for your Employee Handbook will depend on the size, industry type, and location of your business.
