Explanation:

HRM policies and procedures are guidelines supervisors and managers to use as a reference for managing your staff. They state what employees can and cannot do. They’re set by you, the owner or management, and these policies and procedures are governed by federal, state and local employment laws.

For each key area, you’ll state what your policies are. Then add procedures for employees to follow the policies, and what happens if the procedures are broken. A good set of HRM policies and procedures is a living document. It should be the current definitive guide for your company.
