Too Small For An Employee Handbook?
Too Small For An Employee Handbook?THE HR COACH
By Linda J.Lerner
Question: My partner and I own a small business with five employees, two of whom are independent contractors and one is part-time. We recently hired our second full-time employee, who previously worked for a large company. She has been asking us for an employee handbook, which we don�t have, and she has even offered to let us use the one from her old employer. Do we need to have an employee handbook?
The HR Coach: A company your size does not need to have an employee handbook, nor is there any requirement that policies be in writing.
Employee handbooks provide information to employees about their employer-provided benefits and company procedures. At this stage in your development, with only two full-time employees, it wouldn�t make sense to use a large company handbook as a model.
Does your company need a handbook?
