Why Do You Need to Revive your Company’s Policies and Procedures?

If asked when did your company last conduct an internal audit of your policies and procedures to evaluate effectiveness, what would be your answer?

Well, if you are like most organisations, your answers are likely to be ‘not sure’, ‘we’ve done some I think’ or ‘never’. If these are the types of answers that spring to mind, like many other companies, you are putting your business and employees at risk. Moreover, if the need to alter organisational policies is left ignored, issues cropping up from old, ineffective or undocumented policies and procedures can make your organisation vulnerable to a range of legislative, employment and reputational risks.
