Creating a Comprehensive HR Handbook: What Key Points and Steps Should I Include?

Hi all, please help me out in preparing an HR handbook that includes all HR operations from recruitment to the exit of the employee. What points should I cover, and what steps should be followed for the preparation? Please provide your valuable inputs as soon as possible.

For preparing an HR Handbook, you need to mention some major points in it. But before this, you should tell us how many employees are working in your company and which sector/business you are in.

Major Points to be Covered:

1. Company Profile

2. Recruitment Policy (i.e., Sourcing detail, Joining details, Induction/Orientation Program, and Onboarding details)

3. Confirmation Policy (Probation period, Confirmation procedure, and Termination detail)

4. Leave Policy

5. Salary Payments Detail (Like Salary payment date, Payment way, etc.)

6. Statutory Benefits Provided by the Company

7. Personal Conduct

8. Business Etiquette

9. Security and Privacy of Data

10. Employee Engagement Activities

11. Employee Referral Policy, if any

12. Travel and Reimbursements Policy

13. Exit Policy (Inclusion of Resignation criteria, Notice followed, Full & Final Settlement detail)

You can refer to all these major points while preparing the handbook. The rest would vary/depend on the business you are in.
