Hi All,
I have joined a IT company 7 months back. There has been no HR in this company ever since the company started. Hence , there have been no such policies in written format. The senior person heading the organization has also joined some 9 months back. He has been able to handle things well till now. But I feel there has to be a company policy or HR policy document that contains the different policies the company provides to its employees.
I would want to know the answers to the following queries:-
-Which policies do I include while framing the policy document?
-Is employee handbook and company policy the same or different?
-Can the policy document can be amended in order to introduce new changes in the document?
-What precautions do i keep in mind while drafting the policies?
-Do policies change from position to position , or they are same for the senior as well as middle management people?
Please advice.

A policy is like an accepted law in a company. You can refer any policy specialist for the same. Being a lawyer, we can help you as well.
You can change the policies... Its not a problem. For a small company, it maynot be worth investing too much time on this. You would rather go by existing laws that help manage day-to-day affairs rather than having special rules.
