Employer Policies

Employer policies are frequently called the employer's "employment policy." This policy is usually a set of statements which describe the employer's position with respect to workplace issues. The policy serves as a statement of the employer's expectations, the employees rights and privileges of the workplace. The policy is usually in writing, and may be in the format of an "employment policy manual." The manual usually contains provisions relating to the employer's workplace safety policies, sexual harassment, dress code, rules regarding employee appearance, vacation, sick time, paid leave, time off, internet usage, computer usage, termination, probation period, drug testing, drug policies, use of company vehicles and reimbursement for travel or vehicle usage. Also, the policy should be available in both hard copy and electronic format for all employees to review. Finally, the employee should review and sign the policy in order to indicate the employee's understanding and acceptance of the policy.
