The three most important words in HR? Documentation, documentation, and documentation!

You've heard the refrain from attorneys, you've seen the importance of good documentation firsthand, and you've probably preached the documentation sermon yourself. And yet, if you're like most HR Heroes, there are still questions you need answered:

What gets documented and just how do you do it? How do you drive home the point to those who need to be doing much of the documentation — supervisors and managers? And when can flawed documentation be worse than none at all? Since documentation is often the key to an employment lawsuit outcome, how can you use your documentation skills to gain the winning edge?

HR Hero's Guide to Documentation shows you how. In the end, it all boils down to common sense and fairness in the way you use documentation to ensure a smooth operation, and in the way you note achievements and problems, administer discipline, and evaluate employees.

In HR Hero's Guide to Documentation, you'll learn about:

  • Building a file that gives a comprehensive look at an employee.
  • Using documentation in your disciplinary process.
  • Meshing employee documentation with your handbook and other policies.
  • Maintaining job descriptions, search, and interview documentation.
  • Making performance evaluations help employees grow and develop.
  • Maintaining personnel files that meet your needs and your employees' privacy rights.
  • Stopping, through documentation vigilance, identity theft at your workplace.

Make sure to master this critical HR function. Make HR Hero's Guide to Documentation a part of your reference library.
