Employee Handbook Development

We are looking for a volunteer who can develop an employee handbook or make updates to our existing materials. We're hoping to find a partner with a background in HR and/or operations to improve transparency and accountability by clarifying our employees’ rights and our policies, benefits, and other expectations for performance and conduct in a new or revised employee handbook. This project will contain the following activities:

-Conducting an audit of our existing policies including reviewing our existing materials and asking any clarifying questions
-Identifying policies that we should modify and any new policies or areas that should be addressed and included
-Presenting a detailed outline of a new handbook
-Finalizing the handbook after receiving feedback from our team

UnLocal is seeking a volunteer to help update our organizational handbook, creating a clearer, more welcoming guide for the staff and volunteers who serve immigrant New Yorkers every day. Your support will help strengthen our internal systems so our team can spend more time doing what matters most, showing up for families and communities with care, clarity, and dignity.

To prepare, we've designated a team member to oversee the project. We'll provide you with our existing Employee Handbook (if applicable), internal communications regarding employment policies, and any other employment policies that we have in place. The volunteer should expect to spend 15-20 hours over 4-5 weeks.
