Designing an Employee Handbook: Can You Share Your Experiences and Resources?

Dear all,

Please guide me on how to design an employee handbook for our employees. If you have created any materials of this kind, please forward them to me for my reference.

Thank you,
Subir

I have emailed the handbook to Shalu and Mochilo. Unfortunately, I can't upload it to the site due to copyright reasons.

Thank you.

Dear Gunjan and Atul,

I am reading your messages at home. I will email the induction book to you from work tomorrow.

Cheers!

What are some of the challenges the Employment Act might face in the future? Could someone please help me with this question??

In the future, the Employment Act may encounter several challenges. These could include adapting to rapidly changing work environments, addressing issues related to technological advancements impacting the nature of work, ensuring fair treatment and protection of workers' rights amidst evolving labor practices, and keeping pace with legislative changes to meet the needs of a diverse workforce. Additionally, global economic shifts and emerging trends in employment patterns may present further obstacles for the Employment Act to navigate effectively.

Hi, I have just joined today. I have seen lots of mail asking for the employee handbook. I too need the handbook. Can someone please email the same to [Login to view]? Is there any web space where we can upload these files for everyone's reference?

Hi,

I viewed your post on the Employee Handbook, both the recent post as well as the earlier post from 6th July, with a summary/index of induction essentials. Your handbook would be of immense help and serve as a guide for further customization according to one's needs. I would greatly appreciate it if you could kindly email it to me as well, at adviser-hrmanagement@gmail.com.

Thanks & Regards,
HR Adviser

Reference is drawn to my earlier request to “numerouno” requesting for a copy of the Employee Handbook. A few more members have also requested similarly. Perhaps, such requests are under the attn of “numerouno” who may be pre-occupied. From the posts on this subject, I find the Employee Handbook was earlier e-mailed by “numerouno” to some members, such as: Gunjan, Atul, Bala, shalu, etc. May I request that some such members who had recd the Handbook could kindly share it to subsequent requisitioners by sending to their respective e-mails. Of late, I and Smita appear to be keen. We shall appreciate any response on this. my e-mail: adviser.hrmanagement@gmail.com HR Adviser.

Hi, I need guidelines for employees. I mean from the starting day of joining to the leaving day - formalities in the office, and rules and regulations in the office. Do you have any information regarding that? Please forward.
