Every organisation employing people will need policies and procedures. Our policies are legally compliant, concise, easy to understand, and they include all new current employment law changes coming into force in 2024. We have also done the hard work for you so that all you have to do is adapt them to suit your organisation.
Every organisation employing people need to have some rules and policies in place so that employees know what is expected of them. By law, employers must have disciplinary and grievance procedures in place in accordance with ACAS Code of Practice. In addition, where you employ 5 or more employees, employers must also have a health and safety policy. This of course is the very basic minimum and in practice far more policies are needed to allow a business employing people to function properly therefore we strongly recommend going beyond the very basic requirements as a matter of best practice and would therefore recommend you also have the following:
Why wait till you have a problem before deciding you need a policy in place.
You should start by gathering any policies currently in use in your business. You may find several versions of the same policy actually exist, or you may find that key policies are missing. Review the policies you currently have and check how long it has been since they were last reviewed. Then make a list of all the policies you need and that will be your starting point. If your business is moving from a position of only having a couple of policies or none at all, you can then focus on introducing a few key policies first which we would recommend as:
There is right or wrong approach, choose the approach that’s right for you and your business and one that will provide a smooth transition and implementation.
Policies are a good way setting out rules and obligations that apply to your employees that are written in a clear and easily understood format. We ensure they clearly explain what you expect of your employees in certain areas (for example equal opportunities and harassment and bullying), and they also set out what you will do to help your employees in different circumstances (for example, if they are pregnant or absent from work or want to take holidays).
The policies are intended to be ‘ready to go’ however there is likely to be a small amount of edits needed to ensure the policies align with the terminology in your business and covers the areas you need it to.
There are clear guidelines giving you the information you need to select the correct section. These guidelines are in the form of optional wording in square brackets. Consider each time whether you want a specific option of wording to be included in your policy or delete or edit as appropriate to give you the perfect policy for your organisation.
The policies are fully editable in Word format and contain guides such as this extract from our Maternity and Family Friendly Policy:
This Policy is drafted to reflect statutory entitlements. If you offer any enhanced entitlements to leave and/or pay, then you should insert details of these entitlements as well.
Or from our Holiday Policy:
* Note that deductions can only be made from an employee’s wages/salary if there is the express right to make deductions contained in the employment contract. Just having it in this Policy is not enough.
