Staff Handbooks

A Staff Handbook is a way of setting out in more detail procedures, rules and policies without making your contracts of employment pages and pages long. It also gives you the flexibility of being able (if the contract and the Handbook are drafted correctly) to change the contents of the Handbook without it being a breach of contract.

A Staff Handbook might include:-

• Disciplinary Procedure
• Grievance Procedure
• IT/Email/Mobile Phone Policies
• Health and Safety Policy
• Whistleblowing/Bullying and Harassment Policy
• Equal Opportunities Policy
• Sickness Policy
• Absence Reporting Procedures
• Policy on Study/Compassionate Leave
• Smoking Policy
• Flexible Working Policy

There are numerous other rules, policies or procedures which might be suitable for your particular Staff Handbook.

Rees Page can health check your existing policies and procedures or write new ones for you that will be tailored to the needs of your individual business.
