People need policies
Managing people takes time and resources. You can save yourself a lot of effort simply by having a clear policy on many everyday issues.
Employees need to know where they stand, especially when starting a new job. Problems quickly arise if it is unclear what the 'policy' is on any one of a hundred seemingly minor matters - for example, making personal phone calls.
This briefing looks at the most common problem areas, excluding employment law issues.
It covers:
- Setting up a new employee in a job.
- Inappropriate conduct.
- Office rules.
- Absences from work.
