There are many generic templates that are out there for standard industry companies.  You may want to start with those.  Look at the trade rags for consulting firms or google for them.\n\nI just finished ours.  \n\n1.  I developed a template for policies and procedures (standard heading, standard content headings).\n\n2.  I developed a table of contents listing the major policies/procedures needing to be covered.  \n\n3.  I instructed each employee to write procedures as they were completing routine tasks.  I emphasized the procedure must be completed before the task is next completed.  Managers then reviewed procedures during their routine task review.  Next, we rotated job duties for crosstraining purposes.  I instructed each to utilize the written procedures to understand their new responsiblities.  This ensured their completeness.\n\n3.  Policies are higher level documents using words like "shall be" or "should".  These documents set the boundaries that procedures operate within.  These boundaries or tolerances should be tailored to the business' appetite for risk, communication level, etc.  I reserved the writing of these to members of management only.

Focussed, clear and objective job descriptions is a start.\n\n2. The advancement levels and pre-requisites for each job.\n\n3. Basic ingredients required by the successful candidate.\n\n4. Recruiting the right candidate.\n\n5. Providing adequate training and support.\n\n6. Provide opportunties for HR growth and polishing skills.\n\n7. A clear and healthy compensation plan.\n\n8.

Start by asking each employee into your office and ask THEM how to improve what they do and the co.   Tell them it is totally off the record.  Listen very carefully and apply what you can.\n\nOr better yet hire a non-company person to do this.  They will answer more honestly if they know its anonymous\n\nThen look HARD at every cent your company is spending. "Watch the pennies and the dollars will take care of themselves."\n\nPromote from within when ever you can.\n\nTry to make 'Profit Centers'  That is; Establish current acceptable production levels for different areas of the co.  Then pay bonus when this production is surpassed.\n\nAnd last.....  Remember...   "A smart person isn't a person that knows everything. A smart person is someone that knows people that do."

Hire a consultant & printing company. Tell the first what you believe & he tells the second what to do so you look great. If you're going on the cheap, find past examples from other issues/candidates & use them as an example (would recommend you not copy them to closely as that tends to get around).

Start by making a list of "must knows", things they should know when starting (aka competencies). Also include any relevant HR policies (sick days, vacations, ect) and company philosophies and mission statement. Allow time in this plan for return demonstation under supervision any task that they will be performing. Set an appropriate time line in which to complete the training. Once you see these lists on paper, creating the plan will be easy. Good Luck

cool...actually discussing something we learned about in college!\n\nOrganizations probably determine their policies on what the founders of the company believes in how best to run the businesses.\n\nI am a supervisor for a company and tend to believe in theory y management style, but I find that most of the rules that govern employees actions are geared to theory x type of working enviorment.  So, for my employees I let them relax when we are slow and they know to work when we are busy.\n\nAs long as they accomplish their tasks, I am fine with the work they do...but to answer you question, I believe it starts with company culture, and goes from there.\n\nHow about you?

If you use microsoft programs, you can download a free template from their website at http://www.microsoft.com\n\nThis is one such template http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/templates/TC062071261033.aspx - it should provide a good guideline for creating your own.  Search other templates to see if anything else is more applicable.\n\nAs well, you can do an internet search for "company manual' or 'company handbook' to see if anything turns up that you can modify/tailor to suit your own purposes.\n\nOf course, you should check to make sure your policies are within the laws set by your state's Department of Labor; you can check that on the web.

Call your agent and tell them you need to exclude a driver and they will send you the form which both you and the employee will need to sign (each company has it's own form so I can't just get a generic one for you)\n\nEven more importantly don't let the employee drive for anything that can be construed as company business - no trips to the bank, no driving to drop off a document, no driving to pick up lunch for the rest of the office, etc.\n\nHope this helps!

The best tip I can think of about customer service is to SERVE.  Serve your customer, be polite and be educated about what you product is.  If you have to call someone back, make sure you do it on time.  If you are dealing with executives, keep out the extra chit chat, they don't have the time or interest.  I hope some of those tips help.

In your application, don't talk about your responsibilities, talk about your accomplishments, especially in terms of how you either saved money, saved time, or earned money for the company. Use action verbs to accentuate your accomplishments.\n\nExample: \n\n"Improved productivity 5% by optimizing office workflow"\n\ninstead of "Managed office activities"

All companies have their own rules.  There is not one rule for all companies.  It also depends on the job within the company.\n\nMy son just changed jobs and they offered him a company car right off the bat as a benefit of that job. He was a car salesman at the previous place and got a job at a different place as a sales manager.  He asked for and got a monthly monetary allowance instead of the car.\n\nYou've got to talk with your company.
