Why do I need Policies and Procedures or an Employee Manual?

Here are 13 top reasons why it's critical to clearly communicate company information:

  1. Provides organizations with a competitive advantage when attracting and retaining top talent in the current declining labor pool. People want to work for well-run organizations.
  2. Explains the organization's philosophies and culture and communicates clear expectations to all members of the organization.
  3. Demonstrates to job candidates, new hires, and potential investors that the organization is pro-active, organized and well-run.
  4. Orients new hires by providing everything they need to know to work in your organization before they have to guess or make it up themselves. Don't assume people "just know". In absence of organizational information, individuals guess or create their own processes, resulting in inefficiencies, frustration, and re-invention of the wheel.
  5. Provides everyone with 24/7 organizational information, even when no one is around.
  6. Allows for management by exception instead of management involvement in every action and decision.
  7. Ensures that up-to-date and timely compliance information is available to all staff, decreasing organizational liability.
  8. May satisfy criteria required for obtaining certain types of business insurance - example director's Insurance.
  9. Clearly outlines responsibility and authority within the organization.
  10. Allows audit departments, such as Finance, to understand and manage operational rules.
  11. Provides operational information to employees, even when their managers are absent.
  12. Provides guidelines for managers. Without clear guidelines, managers may do "their own thing" when it comes to communicating information to employees about the "house rules". Managers need guidelines for hiring, interviewing, performance management, and allocating perks and benefits.
  13. Offers organizations with remote locations, or those organizations undergoing mergers or acquisitions, an effective integration tool to reinforce organizational rules and culture.
