Course overview
Knowing where to start with creating an employee handbook, or reviewing an existing one, can be incredibly daunting for your HR team. This is because, beyond a few obvious things, what should be included is optional and largely down to their specific business and culture. From the formality level, style, and language to their people policies and who’s included, there are a lot of considerations and questions to ask.
An employee handbook can quickly become a sprawling document which overwhelms new joiners and is dusted off in times of trouble, but it could be something much more. It could generate engagement, guide leadership, provide clarity, keep people safe, and more. This course will help your employees in HR to explore what’s possible.
