Is it for you?
Who it is for
Who it is for
- Alberta employers with about 1 to 50 employees who need written policies and do not have them.
- Owners who want each policy on its own pages, so it can be signed or handed out alone.
Who it is not for
- Federally regulated employers, unionized workplaces and employers outside Alberta.
- Industries with extra rules, unless you add them.
