Creating a strong Employee Manual
August 7, 2024
At SurgeAdvisory, we specialize in developing Employee Manual (also known as Employee Handbooks or Company Handbooks) that are both legally compliant and tailored to your company’s needs. Our expert team guides you through the entire process to ensure your Manual supports your goals and meets all legal requirements.
Why are Employee Manuals important?
An Employee Manual communicates company policies and sets clear expectations, aiding in effective onboarding and reducing potential legal risks.
How we help in drafting your Employee Manual:
Initial meeting
We begin with a thorough discussion to understand your business, company culture, and specific needs, ensuring the Manual reflects your priorities.
Legal review
We work closely with our legal experts, David Zahra & Associates Advocates, to analyse Maltese employment laws to ensure your Manual complies with all regulations and helps mitigate legal risks.
Customised policy creation
We draft tailored policies, including:
- Code of Conduct: Standards for behaviour and professionalism.
- Anti-Harassment and Discrimination: Policies for a respectful workplace.
- Anti-Bribery and Corruption: Guidelines to prevent unethical practices.
- Leave Entitlement: Vacation, sick, and other leave policies.
- Family-Friendly Policies: Flexibility and remote working arrangements.
- Employee Benefits: Details on available benefits.
- Disciplinary Procedures: Steps for managing performance and behavior issues.
Review and feedback
After drafting, we review the Manual with you, incorporating your feedback to ensure it meets your needs.
Final version and implementation
We finalize the Manual and assist with implementation, including training for managers and employees on the new policies.
Ongoing support
Our support continues after delivery, helping you stay updated with changes in Maltese law and performing periodic reviews to keep the Manual current.
