When does a start-up need to create a staff handbook?

When a start-up is born so much of the initial focus is on making sure it survives.

Once the ship has steadied, it’s then onto expansion. But when should it focus on those making sure that everything is smooth sailing?  

Speaking to Forbes, Beth Arnese, an employment and privacy law attorney at the Law Offices of Diana Maier, discussed when start-ups and SMEs should draft and implement an employee handbook.

“I would say when a start-up has more than five employees it’s time to create a handbook,” she said.
