Summary

A comprehensive, up to date, well circulated and well understood HR Manual is a key component to operating a successful childcare program.  This need is particularly acute today as programs struggle to hire, train and retain qualified Educators.  If a program is experiencing high turnover, Educators could lack an understanding of what the HR policies are and where they can be found.  If leaders are unaware of employment standards and/or their own policies, they could unknowingly be mistreating Educators which can lead to burnout, low morale, higher turnover and possibly legal action.  For all of these reasons and more, childcare leaders need to ensure that they have comprehensive HR policies that are organized, updated, and aligned with both childcare regulations and employment standards.

Objectives:

• Have participants take inventory of their HR policies and ensure that they are organized into an HR Manual
• Ensure that the program’s HR policies address and comply with AB childcare regulations and provincial employment standards
• Have participants review a best practices list of HR policies for childcare program and determine if additional policies should be added to their manual
• Provide participants with sample policies for review, modification and/or inclusion in their HR Manual and a framework for transforming their HR Manual into an online, on-demand training tool that is regularly updated and accessed by all Educators
