Employee Handbook

Project details

What we need
  • Audit of existing Employee Handbook, or internal communications regarding employment policies
  • Edit or creation of a new Employee Handbook, which may include any of the following: Standards of Conduct, Work Schedules, Leave Policies, Termination Policies, Safety and Security, Anti-Discrimination policies, Compensation and Benefits policies, any Non-Disclosure Agreements or Conflict of Interest statements that may apply, and any other pertinent information
What we have in place
  • We currently have a draft employee manual for review, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have a stellar Office Manager, Linda Dixon, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $2,430 , allowing us to deepen our staff development work. $2,430 represents a quarter of our annual staff development budget and will make it possible for us to be more intentional in our learning time and space.

We are in a merger process and also have a new Executive Director and want to start 2020 with lots of newness.

Our mission

Our Children Oregon is committed to advancing the common good of all Oregon children, ensuring all children have the resources and opportunities they need to reach their full potential.

What we do

Our Children Oregon is advancing equitable policymaking and whole-child advocacy statewide to ensure our children and youth have what they need, regardless of their race or where they live, to thrive by activating meaningful change for children and families.

We partner alongside organizations to uplift and advocate for community-driven, equity-centered policies and investments that will improve the lives of Oregon's children and families. We work with a network of service providers to strengthen family supports by addressing the root causes of child abuse. We collect, analyze, and elevate data and research, that alongside lived expertise drives conversations in support of Oregon's future. And we engage Oregon youth and communities through education and action opportunities.
