Even the smallest organizations must have clear and concise HR polices to run efficiently. Without policies, some employees will take advantage of the company, hurting morale and causing time-consuming problems. Poorly written policies can lead to serious legal problems.

Solid, well-written human resources policies are the foundation of your human resources program. Our team of experienced HR professionals can move you toward this goal by writing your organization's HR policies.

Statistics show that the leading cause of employee or former employee legal disputes is inadequate personnel policies and procedures for employees and management. Employees usually win these cases in two ways:

• They did not know their actions or inactions violated company policy
• There was not a policy in place to violate

A published set of personnel policies and procedures could easily save your organization $50,000 or more by avoiding just one lawsuit. We have helped numerous companies improve productivity and employee/management relations by introducing HR policies. A personnel policy manual tells all employees about the rules and regulations of your company and provides a number of other important advantages to your organization:

• Protects your organization from potential lawsuits. The cost of just one lawsuit could put you out of business.
• Avoids "wrongful terminations". You can safely terminate employees who have violated your legal policies. Without written policies, terminating an employee could result in a legal challenge. In these cases, the EEOC or Labor Relations Board usually sides with the employee.
• Avoids misunderstandings. Employees have access to written policies and are more knowledgeable about the company's rules and regulations. This decreases turnover and improve employee/management relations. This new awareness results in a conscious effort to comply.
• Provides managers with a written resource that serves as a valuable managerial tool.
• Reduces complaints alleging preferential treatment.
• Improves morale. HR Policies make it easy to have clear guidelines in place for every personnel area.

HR Policies familiarize new employees with company policies and procedures. Policies help answer the most basic questions about the workplace while making new employees aware of what the company expects.
