Well worth reading for HR professionals

'The Complete Human Resources Writing Guide' is well worth reading for HR professionals. It gives practical information and tools on how the HR function can be performed truly.Diane Arthur divides her book into two sections:* Section One- It deals with general writing skills such as writing style and tone, jargon, and structure, format, and design of letters, memos, brochures, and programs.* Section Two- It examines specific HR documents. It contains over one hundred writing samples such as job descriptions, letters to applicants, letters to rejected and selected applicants, new employee announcements, performance appraisals, and newsletters.I highly recommend this guide to all HR professionals.

A great how-to guide for HR practitioners.

This is a how-to manual for writing, designed especially for human resources professionals. It serves as a guide for effective writing techniques and presents numerous samples of human resource documents such as forms, checklists, policies, memos, notices, letters and programs. It includes guidelines and samples for writing a handbook and policy manual. A practical, well written (of course), and greatly needed work.
