policies

Four types of effective company policies

Company policies generally set out the rules, requirements, entitlements and expectations applicable in a particular workplace. However, company policies should not be lengthy lists of ‘do’s’ and ‘don’ts’ for employees to rigidly follow – as this may not have much of an effect on motivating employee compliance. Instead, it is important that employers design and institute policy that is reasonable can easily be understood and is readily enforceable.

LEAVE

Personal, carers, compassionate leave policy. Community service leave policy.

BEHAVIOUR

Code of Conduct. Discrimination policy. Bullying and harassment policy. Social media policy. Disciplinary policy.

PERSONAL PROPERTY

Motor vehicle policy. Dress code policy (ex. grooming and tattoos). Email, internet use and computer policy.

OTHER POLICIES

Occupational Health and Safety. Equal opportunity policy. Recruitment policy.
