HR documents and templates

Human resources (HR) are an essential part of any successful business. However, small businesses can rarely justify a dedicated, full-time HR professional. As a result, they manage their personnel matters internally and often struggle to find resources when recruiting or managing people or developing employment contracts, HR policies, and procedures.

The Invest Northern Ireland Employers' Handbook will help to make your HR efforts more effective. The Employers' Handbook outlines the legal requirements and best practices for employing and managing staff in Northern Ireland. It presents clear and comprehensive guidance on people management issues and offers legally compliant sample documents and templates to help you develop your own customised HR library.

Employer templates

This guide brings together all of the model HR documents from the Employers' Handbook into one, easy-to-use resource, and allows you to quickly download, edit, customise and reuse sample HR policies, forms, letters, checklists and records documents on recruitment, selection, time off work policies and procedures, statutory leave for parents, performance management, redundancy and grievance and disciplinary.

It will also help you improve your HR practices and develop vital resources for your business, such as your staff handbook, office policies, and job descriptions.
