HR MANUALS
EMPLOYEE / EMPLOYER RULE BOOKS - MANUALS
Every organisation needs a RULE BOOK to manage their people / stakeholders.
The objective of the Manuals is to provide comprehensive and concise information on all HR policies and procedures in order to ensure uniformity in application, consistency in interpretation and speedy administration of the same.
An employee handbook is a clear outline of a company’s policies and an employee’s rights. It lays out the legal obligations of the company to its employees and also gives them an overall look at the company culture and expectations.
An employee handbook can be a valuable communication resource for both the employer and the employee. It provides guidance and information related to the organization’s history, mission, values, policies, procedures and benefits in a written format.
HR CONSORTIUM will ensure all existing HR Policies & Procedures have proper internal vetting & controls in place to manage HUMAN assets better.
Manuals may be in any form viz., a Standing Order, Administrative Rule or an employee manual.

While writing the above, HRC believes the following Lines:
“Maya Angelou, the American poet, writer, and polemicist once said something along the line of: This life isn’t about survival-we’ve done that. But it’s about thriving, with passion, compassion, humor and style”.
When things are thriving, there is a lot of active choosing going on: ideas, suggestions, responsibilities, happen throughout the organisation.
