Manuals should be distributed to the HR department and managers and supervisors only.

Policy Manual Sections and Customization
The policy manual contains over 80 comprehensive policies. To speed customization, HRN has identified core policies most organizations need. You can then add on additional policies to meet your specific needs. We've also identified key areas that require company specific information, such as number of sick days and holidays. A Key Fields Guide walks you through customization. View the online demo for a complete Table of Contents. Manual section headings include:

Introduction
