About Workplace Binder

Workplace Binder was created by a global HR specialist based in Calgary, with over 20 years of hands-on HR and safety work: hiring, handbooks, policies, safety programs, and the hard days when someone leaves.

Over and over, we met small business owners with the same problem. They had staff, they had questions, and they had no HR department. What they could find online was either a generic template with blanks where the provincial rules should be, a US document that did not fit Canada, or a subscription that cost more than they wanted to pay every month.

So we started writing the kits we wished those owners had.

What makes our kits different

  • One province at a time. Each kit is written for Alberta, Ontario, British Columbia, Saskatchewan or Manitoba. That province's rules are already in the text.
  • The rule, the source and the date. Every legal rule sits in a Law box with a link to the official government page and the date we last checked it. You do not have to take our word for it. You can check it yourself.
  • What to do, not only what to hand out. Scripts for hard conversations, worked pay calculations, risk screens before a dismissal, and lists of the mistakes that cost owners money.
  • Plain English. Short sentences, one word for each idea, and yellow blanks that show you exactly what to fill in.
  • One price. You pay once, in Canadian dollars, and keep the Word and PDF files.

What we are not

We are not a law firm, and the kits are not legal advice. They were not written or reviewed by a lawyer. They are careful, plain-English documents that show you the rule and its source, and they tell you when a situation needs a lawyer. If you want someone to call for every HR question, an HR service or an employment lawyer will suit you better.

How we keep the kits current

Every kit shows its version number, the date the law was last checked (10 November 2026 for version 1.0) and the next review date (10 May 2027). We review every kit every 6 months. When we publish a new version, buyers within 12 months of purchase get it free: we email you, and you download it from your original receipt link.
