HR Policies
What is a Policy
A policy is a predetermined course of action
established as a guide toward accepted objectives
and strategies of the organization.
A vision is formulated, business processes are
analyzed, and policy and procedure systems to
support the vision are born. As policies
and procedures are written, approved,
published, and implemented, the companys
vision is articulated.
WHY DEVELOP A POLICY MANUAL
Policy manuals are developed to help staff and
management teams run the organization. In best use
situations, policies play a strategic role in an
organization. They are developed in light of the
mission and objectives of the company and they
become the media by which managements plans,
rules, intents, and business processes become
documented and communicated to all staff. Carefully
drafted and standardized policies and procedures save the
company countless hours of management time. The consistent
use and interpretation of such policies, in an evenhanded and fair
manner, reduces management's concern about legal issues
becoming legal problems.
Connection between Mission and Policy
Without policies boundaries and baselines related to the
companys missions and objectives would not exist.
When developing your policies, you should start with
your mission and objectives. A mission statement should
be a clear statement about who your company is trying
to serve. It should be a cultural reflection of the values,
beliefs, and philosophy of the organization. It should be
very brief and very clear so that everyone in the
organization can understand it and so that objectives are
seen clearly as steps to achieving the mission.
Objectives are like goals; they direct the staffs attention to
important factors in running the organization and help
define unique ways to enhance performance of
individuals and the organization as a whole.
POLICIES
How to Start Creating Your Policy Manual
Policies initially are derived from an understanding of core business
practices. They also may emanate from a need to control
operations and therefore a good understanding of how the
business functions is necessary as a first step in developing
good polices. policy creation is a form of research. Research is
an ongoing aspect of keeping polices up-to-date and maintaining
a comprehensive policy manual. The policy manual should be a
living document very much dynamic subject to change.
Existing policies need to be expanded, supplemented, and
revised as business conditions change, as business process
reengineering takes place, as an organization downsizes, and as
quality improvement initiatives are implemented.
Various Types of Policies
