Overview of the Policy Management Interface

The Policy Management feature within Horilla HRMS is designed with simplicity and functionality in mind. The main interface is clean and user-friendly, allowing HR teams and administrators to easily view and manage policies.

Here’s what the Policy Management feature offers:

  • Categorized Policies: Policies are neatly categorized, making it easy for employees to find the necessary information. In the example above, we have categories like “Sales Policies,” “Service Policies,” etc. Each category is represented by a card that displays a brief description of the policy, with options available for viewing, editing, or removing the policy.
  • Policy Details at a Glance: Clicking on a view policy button in the policy card reveals the detailed content of the policy, and the text editor in policy form provided for creating and editing policies is robust, featuring various formatting options such as bold, italics, bullet points, and highlighting, allowing for comprehensive policy documentation.

Creating a new policy is a straightforward process, thanks to the intuitive design of the Policy Management feature. By clicking the “+ Create” button, administrators are presented with a form where they can enter the title, body, and other details of the policy. The editor supports rich text formatting, enabling the creation of well-structured and visually appealing documents.

Key features in Policy Management:

  • Rich Text Editor: The editor offers a variety of formatting options, including different font sizes, text colors, and alignment tools, ensuring that policies can be tailored to meet the specific needs of the organization.
  • Visibility Settings: The form includes an option to make the policy visible to all employees, ensuring transparency and widespread access to critical company guidelines.
  • Attachments: The feature supports attaching related documents directly in the form, allowing HR teams to include supplementary materials such as forms, templates, or additional guidelines alongside the main policy text.
  • Company Association: The Policy Management feature allows policies to be associated with specific companies or branches, which is essential for organizations operating in multiple locations or under different legal frameworks.

To navigate to this feature, simply open the Horilla HRMS sidebar and go to Employee > Policy.
