Complete Employee Handbook: A Guide for Small and Medium Businesses

Most companies assume an employee handbook is an option. Holzschu, a consultant, lists four reasons why every company, especially small businesses, should have one. In this concise, well-organized book, he makes it easy to compose such a document. The two discs should assist the user by providing an online workplace round table and sample forms that can be revised by the user. The author covers policy areas such as hiring, benefits, standards, terminations, as well as job descriptions, interviews, and files. In every section he includes a sample statement that can be revised for the specificity of the organization. A final piece of wisdom reminds businesses to have a lawyer review the handbook before implementing. An excellent selection for business collections.--Joshua Cohen, Mid-Hudson Lib.
