INTRODUCTION
As employee handbooks generally contain a code of conduct for employees with guidelines around appropriate behaviour for the individual workplace, there is a shared approach to addressing workplace issues, this is the best potential to create a harmonious, fair, employee and employer supportive workplace. It allows the employer to know that there is mutual understanding with the employees about actions and behaviours that will warrant disciplinary action up to and including employment termination in their workplace.
An employee handbook is thus a critical document for setting clear expectations, and providing policies for all employees to follow, and making it easier for employers to know how to work with employees to deal with problems when they arise.
This full-day workshop will allow you to examine a range of practices and examples from both local and global organisations, experience the opportunity to draft sections of an employee handbook, and apply a ready-to-use template to develop and customise your own organisation’s Employee Handbook. To anchor the learning and its application, the workshop incorporates group discussions, matrices and models, simulations and hands-on drafting as well as best practice evaluations.
