By Nancy Furbee
This resource should sit on every HR professional's desk. Seriously.
The material contained within is absolutely essential for anyone in HR! The past twenty years of my HR career would have been much easier with this handy resource at my side! I'm so glad to have found "The Everything HR Kit"!
In today's world, information can be found doing a "simple" on-line search; however, that "simple search" often turns into an unbelievably cumbersome project. THIS book will give you a great base of knowledge when answering questions, providing strategic direction, and refreshing your knowledge of key HR laws.
(If you don't have an HR department, keep "The Everything HR Kit" on YOUR desk!)
Thank you, Baker and Putzier!

Useful tool kit
By Satrinab
This is an excellent product with some very useful templates for just about everything a HR practitioner could want. Although many of the templates can be created with a bit of thought by an experienced practitioner this book and CD simply saves so much time. There is some American content that is irrelevant in the Australian context but despite this it is still excellent value for money.
