What is Human Resources Policies & Procedures Manual?

The HR Policies & Procedures manual is a document including all company’s policies. Also, some times the organization calls them the HR Operations Manuals. These policies serve managing the employees task force. It covers all the details about employees management.
 
Policies governs the relation between each employee and the organization from one side. Also, each employee and his, subordinates, peers and managers from the other side.
 
HR Procedures manual or guide, must include in details the company’s best practice to apply each outlined policy.
 
Managers, supervisor and team leaders should read these manuals. They also should consult the manuals before taking any HR related decision. Reading the manuals should guide them to the right decision and best way to put it in place.

What is Employee Handbook?

Employee Handbook is a subversion of the larger and more comprehensive Policies 

manual. It should include the company’s policies related to the employee. Also, includes all procedures the employee needs to follow.

The procedures should be simple and easy for the employee to get his rights and benefits. For example, it should includes the procedure to apply for the annual leave…etc.

What Is The Difference Between HR Operations Manuals and Employee Handbook?

The employee handbook includes a subset of the HR Policies and Procedures Manuals.
 
The design of the HR Operations Manuals is for managers, supervisors and team leaders.
 
The company’s manuals may have forms or procedures they don’t want globally shared. For example, the details of employee exit process.
 
While the Employee handbook should include all policies employees need to know. It should be clear, direct and easy to understand.
