Accessible by design
The colleague handbook is designed with accessibility at its heart. From the fonts and colours to the tone and structure, it's built to be inclusive, particularly for neurodivergent colleagues, and it's screen reader friendly.
The supporting policies use the same accessible design, plain English and trauma-informed tone. Where precise wording protects your organisation legally, we keep it precise, but never at the expense of people being able to understand it.

Your handbook and policies are correct on the day you receive them, but employment law keeps moving. The Studio keeps your policy library up to date as the law changes, with a few hours of expert support and Lunch and Learn seats included, from £149 a quarter for charities. The handbook itself isn't included in The Studio.
See The Studio and the other retained packagesBecause every workplace deserves a handbook and policies that people actually want to read.
