TRAINING COURSE OVERVIEW

A well-written HR Manual/Employee Handbook sets forth fundamental organizational rules and guidelines relating to the practices and behavior of the people in anorganization. It also communicates what an employee can expect from the organization. It is very important that the documents should clearly describe the legal obligation of an employer, and all the rights and obligations of an employee.

The HR Manual/Employee Handbook has very essential information for communicating and describing workplace policies and procedures because they are references in the legal proceedings at the Labour Office and the Industrial Court. All its contents should, therefore, be well explained, correct, and accurate.

This training is designed to provide participants with the knowledge and skills for developing and implementing HR policies and procedures that are relevant, clear, effective, and in line with the Labour Legislation of Uganda. Participants will be guided through the fundamentals of HR policy development and implementation as well as exploring the range of HR policies that should be considered in developing a legally sound workplace Human Resource Manual.
