Human resource policies are systems of codified decisions, established by an organization, to support

administrative personnel functions, performance management, employee relations and resource planning.
Each company has a different set of circumstances, and so develops an individual set of human resource
policies.
Developing the HR Policies
HR policies allow an organization to be clear with employees on:
he nature of the organization
!hat they should e"pect from the organization
!hat the organization e"pects of them.
How policies and procedures wor#.
!hat is acceptable and unacceptable behavior$
he conse%uences of unacceptable behavior
HR policies provide an organization with a mechanism to manage ris# by staying up to date with current
trends in employment standards and legislation. he policies must be framed in a manner that the
companies vision & the human resource helping the company to achieve it or wor# towards it are at all
levels benefited and at the same time not deviated from their main ob'ective.
Purposes
he establishment of policies can help an organization demonstrate, both internally and e"ternally, that it
meets re%uirements for diversity, ethics and training as well as its commitments in relation to regulation
and corporate governance of its employees. (or e"ample, in order to dismiss an employee in accordance
with employment law re%uirements, amongst other considerations, it will normally be necessary to meet
provisions within employment contracts and collective bargaining agreements. he establishment of an
HR Policy which sets out obligations, standards of behavior and document disciplinary procedures, is now
the standard approach to meeting these obligations.
HR policies can also be very effective at supporting and building the desired organizational culture. (or
e"ample recruitment and retention policies might outline the way the organization values a fle"ible
wor#force, compensation policies might support this by offering a )*+,- pay option where employees can
ta#e an e"tra four wee#s holidays per year and receive less pay across the year.
