For most entrepreneurs the idea of sitting down and writing an employee handbook makes them cringe. You may not know what should be included or even how to start.
Do you really need one? Yes! If you have employees you have a legal responsibility to have some policies in place while others simply help you apply consistent expectations and fair treatment across the team.
In addition, policies set clear expectations when well communicated which will make your team much easier to manage.

“Sarah implemented innovative and effective policies and initiatives. Such employee support resulted in a positive team-building environment that allowed our company to continue to grow and establish a reputation as one of the sought-after companies to work for in the industry.”
“UptreeHR helped us get more applicants than our past attempts for this position, especially a larger group of high quality candidates we were able to interview. They also helped save us time posting and promoting the position, and doing the initial screen of candidates. Overall, we were very pleased with the service. It was money well spent to secure the individual we hired.”
Sarah supported me tremendously and her advice and demeanor instilled confidence immediately. To have someone with her depth of knowledge and corporate experience available to us via a retainer relationship was perfect since, as a fairly small company, we couldn’t afford a full-time HR professional of her calibre.”
“Sarah is a solid, seasoned HR professional with a firm understanding of employment law, HR policies and strategies and perspective on best HR practices in large and small companies. Sarah is very customer focused and works closely with internal customers to develop workable policies, practices and implementation. Sarah is very well respected and relied on by employees and managers for her knowledge and practical counsel.”
