Hi,

Excellent piece of work. Conceptually very well-structured. I have no observations at this stage as I have been able to make just a quick leafing through, and that satisfied me professionally. I am downloading it and would be able to convey my observations later as that takes time. But I repeat that you have made an extremely valuable contribution to your organization and to our profession. Keep adding value!

Thank you, Pankaj, John, and Prachi.

I am waiting for your valuable suggestions to improve or if there are any points which you all think that I forgot to include.

Love,
Vandana 😊

Hi,

I too have prepared the same by taking guidelines from Google. Your handbook is in the same line. It's indeed a good one.

Hi Vandana,

It's a beautiful presentation, well-drafted and crafted. I really mean it.

Hey Madhu, I need help from you. If possible, could you send me the recruitment and selection procedure of your organization or any other organization if you have it, as I am working on a project.

Bye and thanks once again for sharing such an informative presentation with us.

Dear Vandana,

Quite amazing effort and the systematic approach have made it more worthy. I have a few suggestions that might help us all:

- The length of the document may be a factor for reading everything and gaining full knowledge.
- Most of this information should be in bullets because we all absorb information more easily in bullet points.
- If you don't mind, may I make an effort to convert it into a more bullet-oriented text?

Comments from all of you are most welcome.

Hi Bhushan,

I appreciate the effort you put in. I'm a student of MBA, and I was tasked with collecting the employee handbook. With your help, I now understand what an employee handbook is all about.

Thank you! 😊

Hi Vandana,

The manual is an excellent piece of work done by you. It's a wonderful manual that covers all areas about your organization. A good contribution indeed!

A suggestion: You could have used bullets which might be a good way of presentation. Hope we get to see lots of valuable inputs from you on different topics of HR.

Hi Vandana,

I am going to download it. I am sure it will help a lot to smoothen the HR practices in the organization. I will get back to you after going through it.

Bye,

Hi Vandana,

It's really an excellent piece of work. I am also creating an EHB for my company. This will surely help me.

Hi Vandana,

Great job done by you. Thanks for the input, and I hope I'll prepare a handbook for my company by using yours as a base document.

Thanks,

Vandana,

I must congratulate you for the efforts you have put in. An amazing document. But aren't a few rules very severe? A handbook for a new employee should welcome him/her into the systems of the organization. Rules like unnaturally colored hair, tattoos, no multiple ear jewelry, workplace monitoring, or uniforms are something most organizations are doing away with as retention strategies. Research has proved that people work best when they don't have restrictions and inflexible rules.

Hi Vandana!

I am unable to open the attachment. I am supposed to work on the Employee Handbook of my company. Please email me at the earliest at karuna.kamath@qualcorelogic.com.

Thanks in advance!

Thanks a ton for sharing such useful information.

Hi Vardana - this is even better than mine! :) - You've mentioned Joining Checklist and all - :) Very good work - just run a spell check - there are some mistakes here and there that will not be welcome when it goes to print.

Hi Vandana,

Thank you for the handbook. We are in the process of preparing a similar handbook for our organization, and I am sure the sample you have provided will help us.

Hi Vandana,

I have newly joined the Cite HR Forum and saw your posting on Employee Handbook. I couldn't find the link to download. Please help me find the link as I am also in the verge of preparing the Handbook. A soft copy can help me too.

This is a result of very hard work put in. It covers almost every single topic that must be a part of an Employee handbook. The topics can be modified or expanded as per your specific needs.

Hi Vandana,

The employee handbook designed by you is pretty good and very informative. Please keep it up.

Hi there,

I was trying to download the file, but it was not possible from the office as all file downloads have been blocked here. Therefore, I kindly request you to email me a copy at juhijyo04@gmail.com.

I am currently working as a Summer Trainee and need to prepare an Employee Handbook, so I would like to refer to what you have created. I will wait for your reply.

Thanks and Regards,

Hi Vandana,

It is an excellent piece of work, and you have kept in mind even the minute details which at times cause problems at the workplace. Thanks a lot for this well-documented handbook.

Cheers!! Vidya

Hello!

I've read your work. I must say, your company must be very pleased to have such hardworking personnel around. You've done a great job!

One comment, however, the manuscript is too narrative. Don't get me wrong on this one. What I would like to insinuate is, putting myself in the shoes of the ordinary worker in the company, I would find it too tiring to read. If, on the other hand, a supervisory-level position will review, it will take time from his very busy schedule to read through and understand some terminologies which are not common considering the nature of his job.

Another comment is about the entire piece containing topics which are not so much of regular employee concern but more of the HR's. You can limit it by being precise on things directly involving the employee and his job and summarizing the rest in one short, concise unit of the "manual".

But, as I said, it will be very useful on the corporate side as a basis for employee orientation.

Please, don't get me wrong..., I just want to be transparent knowing that you are looking for an honest opinion to assist you with.

GOD Bless!!!
