WHY IS AN EMPLOYEE HANDBOOK SO IMPORTANT?
As an employer you should consider incorporating an Employee Handbook into your company’s hiring procedures for the following reasons:
- Ensures that new employees are given guidance on the expectations you have for them.
- Consistent policies applied to all employees ensure that everyone is treated equally and fairly.
- The handbook serves as protocol for confusion, conflict, and problem-resolution with employees.
- Sets boundaries for both employers and employees.
