Supervisor's Handbook

KC

Is it common for Businesses to have Supervisor Handbooks - seperate from the employee handbook? We have had several issues come up where a manager will say "I didn't know I was suppose to say or do that". I am just wondering if it would be beneficial to my company to have one.

Yes, many companies put together a management manual that goes into more detail than the employee handbook ... and if companies haven't, it's probably on their wish list. If you are a Law Center member*, you have access to a sample Management Manual that might give you an idea of where to start for your company. To view the manual, go to:

-Click this link to go to our home page (it will open in an new window so you can still view these instructions): [url]www.hrhero.com[/url]
-Click the Member Login link in the upper right corner of our home page.
-Log in (only Law Center members allowed).
-Click on Manuals under HR Tools.
-Click on Management Manual (there's also a sample Employee Handbook if you're interested).

In addition to the Employee Handbook, we have a Supervisor's Manual. Each Sup has a hard copy as well as being able to check it out on the computer.

I have found that giving the Sup's a manual ensures that Company Policies and Procedures are enforced.
