Overview
Don't let your employee policies and procedures just evolve by accident. Without the written documentation of your employee policies and practices, it's like having no definitive policies at all. When policies and procedures just "happen" it leads to misunderstandings, low employee morale and even expensive legal problems.
Having a concise employee handbook helps avoid potential lawsuits and is the first step in establishing a consistent set of personnel practices. A well-crafted employee handbook is something no restaurant should be without.
Use the Restaurant Employee Handbook Template as a guide to help you develop and document your own unique book of policies, procedures and practices relating to the hiring and employment of your staff. Simply review and edit the templates to suit your purposes. There's no need to start from scratch or re-invent the wheel! (We strongly suggest that you have a competent attorney, familiar with employment law in your area, review your handbook before adopting its contents and distributing it to your employees.)
The word processing files are in both MS Word (.doc) formats and may be used with Windows or on Macs.
- Organize all of your policies and benefits in one booklet.
- Reduce your exposure to lawsuits, litigation and disputes.
- Allow more effective and consistent management.
- Increase employee morale, reduce turnover and increase productivity.
