Policies and procedures communicate the values of your organization and provide everyone with a consistent process to follow. ECEC providers must comply with legislation regardless of their work setting. It is good practice for managers to develop human resources policies that help their centres meet their legislative obligations as well as deal with day-to-day issues.
Language used in ECEC can vary depending on the governance model or province/territory in which you work. Throughout the HR Toolkit, the term “organization” is used to denote a variety of early learning and child care settings – nonprofit, public or commercial. Sometimes the words “centre” “agency” or “facility” are also used. Several sections relate and refer to “boards of directors”.
