A workplace policy defines the business’s expectations of employees’ performance and behaviour. Workplace policies also help to protect the business when employees are in breach, and the business needs to act. A procedure outlines the steps involved in implementing the policy, and together they provide a clear guideline for the business’s employees.
We have listed the most common workplace policies and procedures. At a first glance, the sheer number of documents can seem dauting; however, different business’s require different policies and procedures depending on their business structure, services/products, nature of work undertaken, work conditions, etc.
Understanding what policies and procedures your business needs is important. We recommend you speak to a professional to determine which policies and procedural documents are suitable for your business so they can be tailored to your business’s needs. This can also include a current risk-assessment of your business. Chamberlains’ specialist workplace lawyers have extensive experience in this field and offer an initial 15-minute consultation free of charge.
Our team also assists with drafting policies and procedures, and we pride ourselves on providing documents in clear, simple language to mitigate the chances of complex and costly disputes arising.
