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
Additional details

We are a small but rapidly growing nonprofit. We currently do not have an employee handbook at all and we are looking to create one from scratch.

What we have in place
  • We currently have a blank slate, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have an Executive Director who is motivated to make this happen, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $2,430 , allowing us to keep prices low for our customers and wages competitive for our employees.

Our organization is moving through adolescence and is just beginning to get more organized with regard to employee and volunteer policies and procedures. We know we need to formalize these resources but we have no idea where to start! Having an employee handbook will make us a better and more appealing employer to the new hires we plan to bring on board in the next few months.
