What is an Employee Manual?
If you own a business and want to formally provide guidelines to employees, you can use an Employee Manual. Instead of repeating information in meetings, and mentioning rules in passing, you can provide your employees a written account of what the rules and expectations are at your company. An Employee Manual can be an useful way to provide specific information to your employees about everything related to their employment. It also can help protect you, and the company, from potential liability.
With an Employee Manual, you can provide a basic outline of each employee's responsibilities, as well as an explanation of their rights and privileges. In the document you can detail the following: the length of an introductory work period, internet policy, personal emails, social media policy, harassment complaints, paydays, insurance benefits, vacations and personal leave, and the dress code.
Use the Employee Manual document if:
- You operate a business and need to compose a manual outlining the rules, responsibilities and rights of your employees.
- You need to update the existing employee manual for your company.
