Description

Managing employees can be challenging. 
You have a choice: a productive work environment, or one full of miscommunication and distracting personnel issues. 
A clear, concise employee manual stops many problems before they even start. Maybe you're a business owner faced with managing a new team of employees. Or perhaps you've been in business for a while, and your policies were informally enforced with your staff. While casualness may have worked when you only had one or two people to deal with, now it seems that you spend more time untangling human resource problems than actually getting the work of your company accomplished.
Regardless of size, a business needs a document to lay out expectations, rules and guidance for employees. Even a small business should establish standards such as dress code, performance appraisals and operating procedures for customer relations. 
This Basic Guide To Employee Policies is designed to give you a template for customizing your own manual, specific to your business. 
Find recommendations on issues such as…
Attendance Disciplinary actions Leaves of Absence Pay policies Promotions Safety Training Vacation time

…and many more!

Why should I use this manual?
The Basic Guide To Employee Policies has been compiled by the collective knowledge of business leaders and entrepreneurs. While it won't cover every possible contingency, it does give you a broad platform to adapt to your own business, which saves you time and money. It's downloadable, so you can access it right away, and start modifying it to fit your own parameters. 
So make a choice—start creating your employee manual from scratch, or tap into the existing expertise of successful business owners, save time and money, and get on with the business of your business.
