A human resource manual is a document detailing an organization's policies regarding employee management and the relationship between managers and employees. Taking the form of either an employee handbook or an internal document used by management, it aims to describe workplace practices, hiring and termination procedures, and other pertinent information. Because these guides are essential for communicating an organization's workplace policy and because they are often referenced in legal proceedings, they must be thorough and accurate. These steps will teach you the basics of how to write a human resource manual that is informative and comprehensive.
