HRBank: Policies

Below is a list of sample HR Policies that have been donated by voluntary and community organisations.

These are available for other organisations to download and tailor to their own needs.

Please be aware that they are not completed documents and will require checking and proofing. The are intended to provide you with a starting point when creating new policies.

Please read the below disclaimer:

I understand that if I want a policy that reflects the latest legislation and is appropriate to my organisation, I will seek specialist legal advice. Policies, job descriptions and person specifications are intended for guidance only and do not act as a substitute for professional advice. I understand that if my organisation decides to rely on a document obtained from the NCVO's HRBank, it does so at its own risk.

Download policies

We often have several policies covering a particular area and these can be downloaded individually as Word files. You can choose to cherrypick from several of them or download and amend the most recent policy. They are listed alphabetically by topic and then by date (newest first).

You will need to read and remove the disclaimer from the top of each document.
