Hi Friend

This week is a policies and procedures week. They are those awful necessities that you only realise you need when something goes wrong or when you work out you have answered the same question for the 100th time.

We start by looking at Social Media Policies. This is a very new area of Human Resources and most businesses are floundering trying to keep up.

We then look at what are the 5 things you need to do when you change your policies and procedures.

Our product of the week is designed to make the heart sing for any small to medium sized business owner who employees people.

THIS WEEK

Social Media Policies - What Should Yours Say?

If you have employees at least one of them will visit places like You Tube, Facebook or Twitter. What they say about your company while they are there can bankrupt you. This is one of my top 2 business risk areas. I believe all businesses need proactive and current Social Media policies to mitigate the risk. In this post I explore what they should contain - as well as giving you a link to a f*ree Social Media policy from our HR Manual.
