Writing Effective Policies and Procedures

Most organizations don't take the time to assure that their policies and procedures are effective. Meaning, the policies are followed, enforced, and most importantly, that the policies are read by the employees. Knowing how to create effective policies is a process, and usually involves more than one person. The process starts at the top of the organization and goes all the way through to the front line staff. Getting buy-in from administration and human resources are essential, but not enough. The policies have to be understood by every level of intelligence within an organization. Once a policy is written, you aren't done; getting a policy put into an employee handbook is really just the beginning of the process to ensure its effectiveness. This webinar will discuss the process most policies should take and what is critical to be included in every policy.
