Revising Our Employee Handbook: Seeking Examples and State-Specific Insights for India

I am in the process of revising the Employee Handbook for our offices in India. There are two questions I wanted to discuss:

1. Latest (2013) Employee Handbook Examples
Please share any examples you might have.

2. Specific Differences Between New Delhi and Bangalore (Bengaluru) States
Are there specific differences in policies or regulations between these states?

Thanks,
Divya

Did you search for the handbook on this site? You will find it here. Yes, there will be changes for the same in two different states related to government policy.

Hi umalme, I did research; however, I found some were dated. I am also looking for more up-to-date information as well as the specifics for both states.

Thank you.

Divya

Should we give the employee handbook to the employee after signing, or, like the appointment letter, provide one copy to the employee and retain another at the HR department as an acknowledgment?

Hello, Should we give the employee handbook to the employee after signing, or, just like the appointment letter, should one copy be given to the employee and the other retained at the HR department as an acknowledgment?

Understanding the Employee Handbook

I request you to understand these first, then you can decide for yourself. What is an employee handbook? What is the purpose and importance of an employee handbook? Who issues it and why? If you can answer these, you will already know the answer to your query.
