Hi Touchdown,
A handbook should include:
Company Rules and Procedures
Company Safety and Quality Policies
Organisational Structure
Expected Behaviours/Food Safety Culture
Hygiene Policy/Requirements
Sickness Reporting
Site & Product Security
Controlled Product Areas including entry and exit procedures
Product Familiarisation
Allergen Awareness
Quality Requirements
Pest Awareness and Control
Basic Food Safety Hazards and Controls
Emergency Procedures
Employee Safety Requirements
HR Procedures
I'm sure there may be a few other things that may be useful.
Kind regards,
Tony
