5.0 out of 5 stars An outstanding first book on HRM, September 19, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: A Company Policy & Personnel Workbook (Psi Successful Business Library) (Paperback)
As a new practitioner of human resouces management in our company I have found this book particularly valuable. It provides the human resource manager with an essential check list of issues and responsibilities that are an integral part of managing, overseeing, interviewing, and trouble-shooting employee matters.

The authors discuss and explain a wide range of systems that must be in place for a company, large and small, to operate within the parameters of acceptable pactice and to provide the policy protection that the law requires. Forms are provided, interview check lists, sample policy approaches and professional standards are all a part of this valuable workbook.

I would have wanted to see what a personnel file would contain, though I guess the authors expected the readers to do a little work on their own.
