Project details
What we need
- Audit of existing Employee Handbook, or internal communications regarding employment policies
- Edit or creation of a new Employee Handbook, which may include any of the following: Standards of Conduct, Work Schedules, Leave Policies, Termination Policies, Safety and Security, Anti-Discrimination policies, Compensation and Benefits policies, any Non-Disclosure Agreements or Conflict of Interest statements that may apply, and any other pertinent information
What we have in place
- We currently have a version that needs to be updated, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have an outline of needs, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $4,330 , allowing us to spend more time creating experiences for the people we serve.
This is important to ensure that our small organization is following HR best practices and providing our employees with essential information about their job and benefits.
