Frequently Asked Questions

What Are Internal Policies?

Internal policies are simply written guidelines on aspects of your business. They usually govern the behaviour of employees, or the standards required for providing your goods or services.

Why Are Internal Policies Important?

Having your policies are processes in writing makes it easier for your workers to understand how they need to engage with one another and their working obligations. These documents can also be extremely important in showing any external parties that you are compliant with various laws, regulations or standards that impact your business.

Can I Make My Own Internal Policies?

Yes, of course, policies can be made by any business owner. However, you might want the assistance of a business lawyer in order to ensure your policies are legally complaint.

Are Internal Policies Legally Binding?

Internal policies must be legally compliant, and if they aren't the law prevails. However, showing that you have compliant internal policies can be really important in the case of any disputes, particularly involving employees. Having your internal policies in writing can go some way to showing that you conduct a safe working environment, or in providing evidence that a worker was not performing their role in line with your internal policies or procedures.

How Does A Lawyer Help With Internal Policies?

Having a business lawyer prepare your internal policies can ensure that they are compliant with any laws, regulations, standards or codes that your business operates under. At Canny Insight, we prepare compliant Privacy and Website Policies and can provide you with bespoke policies on a range of matters to suit your business needs.

When Do I Need Internal Policies?

You can create internal policies at any time and when you do it will usually depend on the nature of your business, and its size as you begin to take on more new employees who need to be trained in your business's policies and procedures.

IT WAS LIKE RECEIVING ADVICE FROM YOUR MUM – BUT YOU ACTUALLY LISTEN TO IT!

We have been with Canny Group for seven years now.  After deciding at the start of 2020 we wanted to start a new business, we took the idea straight to Amanda who offered us second to none advice.  It was like receiving advice from you mum, but you actually listen to it.

Amanda was kind, compassionate but incredibly real – her open and honest communication meant we were going into our venture with our eyes wide open to some of the hard facts of business but felt we had the tools for success.  After months of feedback and tweaking to our business plan – we have confidently been able to take the next steps into bring our venture to life.

Without Amanda, her great advice, time and mentoring, we would not be seeing the success we are today!
