Staff Handbooks

Well-written staff handbooks are really important to a business because they communicate the employer’s policies and procedures to their employees.

It's essential to have handbooks that:

outline the employer’s expectations with regards to conduct;
clearly set out disciplinary and grievance procedures;
explain policies relating to data protection;
have policies for retirement and redundancy;
set out clear strategies relating to equal opportunities, the prevention of discrimination, bullying or harassment;
make clear employees’ rights to time off work including annual leave, maternity, paternity and parental leave, and the right to apply for flexible working.

It is also advisable to have clear policies relating to the use of telephones, internet and email communications at work.

We can supply template documents that employers and HR professionals can edit and adapt to suit their own requirements, as part of the Lawrite Employment Law and Employment Law Plus services.

For Managed HR clients, we can assess you current documents if necessary, and then take your instructions before providing staff handbooks to suit your specific requirements.
