The Workfolk · ServiceHR Policies.
Clear rules for joining, leave, remote work, exits and the everyday grey areas. Written so people actually read them.
The problem
Someone raises a complaint. No one knows what to do next.
Four people, four different answers about how leave works.
Policies aren't paperwork. They're how your team knows what to expect.
3-4 weeks
Typical turnaround for a core policy set
10+ policies
Covering onboarding, leave, exits and the everyday stuff
Plain English
Short policies people can actually understand
How we do it
A clear three-step process.
We look at what you have
Whatever's there — old docs, a Notion page, nothing at all. We find the gaps and the grey areas that are quietly creating friction inside the team.
We write the new ones
Short. In plain English. Sized to a company your shape, not copy-pasted from a thousand-person playbook. Built to be used, not filed away.
We help you roll them out
Manager briefings, an all-hands, and we stay around for the questions. So the policies actually mean something.

You need this if
Any of this sounds familiar.
- 01
You don't really have policies — just whatever the last manager decided.
- 02
Your last exit was messier than it should have been.
- 03
You're raising a round and investors are asking the people questions.

Questions, answered
What founders usually ask us.
No. We focus on the operational and behavioural policies that shape how your team actually works day to day. For statutory documents that need legal sign-off, we will tell you and point you to the right person.
That's the whole point. Each policy fits on a screen. No jargon, no fine print, no pages of legal cover.
Yes. Manager briefings, an all-hands, and a 30-day window for questions. Otherwise the document just sits in a Drive folder.
