An employee handbook is a document that teaches new and existing employees best practices, proper procedures and guidelines for following processes. It's an important part of new employee on-boarding and guiding current employees.
Regardless of the department, role or industry employee handbooks help company's ensure the sameness in actions and behavior across employees. It's an important part of the training of new hires and continual training of existing employees. Employee handbooks provide a reference for employees to do their jobs and conduct themselves with the same values and expectations the company has.
