Documenting company policies
You will require policies and procedures to explain your organisation's rules as your business scales. VHD will write your policies and procedures into a Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) document that will clearly communicate company operations and minimise onboarding difficulties.
The absence of policies can put your organisation in high-risk circumstances. It is crucial to make sure that your policies are legally compliant and that your expectations and company standards are documented and communicated to your employees.
VHD will happily guide you through the entire process.
Discrimination and inclusivity
Every employee is entitled to legal protection from all forms of discrimination. Your company will greatly benefit from cultivating an environment where everyone is treated equally and respectfully.
VHD can assist with any reasonable adjustments to look after pregnant employees, employees with disabilities or manage cultural differences.
Having the appropriate procedures in place is essential as accusations of discrimination and adverse action can result in unlimited fines and no minimum service requirement.
Human friendly policies
It's not just kind to let new parents take the necessary time off and make sure they aren't forgotten; it's also a company’s minimal legal responsibility. You may preserve excellent skills and experience within your organisation by taking into account flexible solutions for workers with family responsibilities. It can be challenging to draw the line, though, if an employee is hunting for a situation that might hurt your companyVHD can advise on issues including caregiver and parental leave benefits.
Workplace stress, bullying and harassment, operating a business car, working alone, leave and attendance, performance and capability are some additional policy examples where professional advice has value.
