    HR Policy Manual.

    We write a complete HR policy manual that reflects how your business runs and what the law requires: working hours, leave, attendance, pay, benefits, conduct, prevention of sexual harassment, grievances, discipline and exit. Policies are aligned with the Labour Codes and with the Shops and Establishments law of each state you operate in, so managers have one reference.

    Before we start

    What we need from you.

    Don't have everything yet? We send a short checklist after the first call and work with what you have.

    • Current leave, attendance and reimbursement practices
    • Salary structure and list of benefits

    How fees work

    The fee depends on your situation. After a short call, the partner who will do the work tells you what's involved and gives you a fixed fee in writing — before any work begins.

    • Government fees and statutory charges are billed at actuals.
    • When you pay — upfront, in stages or on completion — is agreed in writing with the fee.
