Dear all members,
I'm revamping our employee handbook and would like to post it in ther intranet. However, my manager asked a question if all employees, especially new employees would know all the procedures in the handbook. Then, we came up a solution to change it into ePolicies and Procedures to cater all employees including new employees. A question again from her that if we need still keeping the hardcopy of employee handbook. I have a bit confuse of the difference between Handbook and Policies? Can we invite new employee to visit intranet for reading instead of keeping handbook hardcopy?
Thanks for your advice in advance.

Dear Anilee
Employees handbook is a ready reference its can consists of many things such as whos who,company history,dresscode.A to Z of a company.Though it has policies related to job a handbook cannot be replaced for policies / e policies.
You can do two things
First Prepare a orientation for new joinees.Make it in a presentation form rather than BLah Blah stories...
You will be able to gather more info from a new joinee point of view.
Then include it in your handbook
Frame Specific policies.Take an undertaking from the employees if needed.Other general policies can be circulated in intranet.
Its also better to have a hardcopy.Keep it as master copy & circulate copies in intranet.
