Employee Handbook Cover Template

An A4 employee handbook cover for HR teams, start-ups and small businesses onboarding new staff. A bright office photo fills the top with your company name in an amber tag, and the navy section below holds an Employee handbook label, a big Welcome to the team title, a short line about what's inside and a row with the version, who it's for and who to ask.
