Achieving 100% Compliance of Policies and Procedures

Achieving 100% Compliance of Policies and Procedures is a longer version of the author's popular book, Establishing a System of Policies and Procedures. This book helps the reader understand how to make improvements to existing policies and procedures as well as how to add improvements to new policies and procedures the first time through.

A case study is used to show just how easy it is to make improvements to policy and procedure content.  An old, worn-out Purchasing Procedure is turned into a modern, robust Purchasing Procedure document.  

Simple methods are used to write documents that can be objectively reviewed and objectively changed to make significant improvements.

Complete chapters are included on process improvement, communications, training, compliance, auditing, cost benefit analyses, team building, writing policies and procedures, and for making changes to the company's culture to assure the success of published policies and procedures.

A 40-step action plan provides information for how a policy and procedure program should be set up; it also gives ideas to the policy and procedure writer as to the required flow for writing policies and procedures from A to Z.

There is a bonus chapter at the end of the book that gives you ideas as to what a policy and procedure writer should be studying to enhance their skills.

Examples of policies and procedures are also included in the appendices to this book. Check out the author's website for additional information and a place to find free advice: Just Google for the URL: companymanuals.com.  For free advice, email the author at:  stevebpage at gmail.com.
