How to Create an Employee Manual

Large corporations use employee manuals to both educate employees about policies and protect themselves legally. Whether or not you need an employee manual is your decision, though it can be a great tool for keeping your policies consistent.

Make sure you have your employee manual reviewed by a lawyer to make sure it is compliant with local and federal laws. Some employers also require employees to sign a document stating that they have read and understand the policies in the guide.

The following is a sample outline that you can use as a guideline for your manual:

1.Welcome & Introduction

2.Purpose of Handbook

3.Company Mission Statement

4.Company History

5.Employee Responsibilities & Code of Conduct

6.Discipline Procedures

7.Attendance and Punctuality

8.Time Cards

9.Work Hours, Breaks & Lunch Breaks

10.Overtime Policy

11.Payday

12.Payroll Deductions
