The primary benefit of incorporating certain company rules and procedures into a company policy rather than an employment contract can be the ability of the employer to be able to vary and amend the terms of its policy or policies over time in order to accommodate the forever changing environment of business operations. The terms of an employment contract on the other hand, cannot be varied without the consent of both parties – so it can be a lot trickier to try and implement any change.
