This template provides an outline of personnel policies for practice management that you can tailor to your practice.
In a growing practice, there is much room for vagueness in employee expectations as more and more unprecedented situations arise. A thorough, well-written policy manual is not only helpful in these situations, it is a necessity. Work rules and expectations should be clearly communicated to employees in this manual.
Crucial components of a manual include the performance expectations for your practice and your employees. You must also specify practice hours, along with guidelines for when employees can take lunches and other breaks. Compensation for overtime hours should also be described. Payroll and tax procedures can be defined here also.
A good personnel manual also includes a general overview of benefits for both full-time and part-time employees. A multitude of other issues need to be described in your policy manual, such as confidentiality, termination, and discrimination. For guidance in preparing your practice's manual, consult the
