PLEASE NOTE:
This handbook is sold as a comprehensive employee handbook template for you to amend and use in your cleaning business. Unauthorised distribution to others outside your business is not permitted, whether for financial gain or otherwise.
You will need to go through each section and make changes appropriate to your business, including changing terminology such as Line Manager or General Manager that may not be appropriate for your business. There are also certain sections that you will need to complete from scratch such as your business information and your own induction and training process. Outside of that we have endeavoured to make this employee handbook as comprehensive as possible. Using this handbook in conjunction with the employment contracts supplied either as part of DCBN membership or in our team management document bundle, will ensure all new employees are set up correctly from the outset.
