Hiring

An employment relationship begins when an applicant accepts a job offer, but much preparation is required to ensure that the relationship proceeds as hoped. This portion of the Employment Regulations guide covers the entire hiring process from making a job offer to what having an employee will cost you. The following topics are discussed:

Extending an employment offer. How to make a job offer, negotiate starting pay and benefits, determine employment terms and conditions, and decide whether to use employee handbooks and employee contracts.
Compliance information. Information about collecting personal employee information and tax and compliance information, and creating, retaining and permitting access to personnel files.
Employee Benefits. Which benefits are required or optional for your employees and choosing the optional benefits you may want to provide.
The Actual Cost of Employees. Determining the cost of an employee and whether your business budget can absorb that cost.
