Dutch term or phrase: arbeidsreglement
Ik dacht aan "Terms of Employment", maar dat dekt naar mijn gevoel de lading niet.

Het is het reglement dat gewoonlijk opgehangen wordt op het werk met alle regels waaraan werknemers zich moeten houden, inzake werkurenregeling, veiligheid, afwezigheid, vakantie, enz.

Reference information:
"Employee handbook

An employee handbook, sometimes also known as an employee manual, staff handbook, or company policy manual, is a book given to employees by an employer. Usually, the employee handbook contains several key sections and includes information about company culture, policies, and procedures.[1]

The employee handbook can be used to bring together employment and job-related information which employees need to know. It typically has three types of content:[2]

1. Cultural: A welcome statement, the company's mission or purpose, company values, and more.
2. General Information: holiday arrangements, company perks, policies not required by law, policy summaries, and more.
3. Case-Specific: company policies, rules, disciplinary and grievance procedures, and other information modeled after employment laws or regulations.

The employee handbook is almost always a part of a company's onboarding or induction process for new staff. A written employee handbook gives clear advice to employees and creates a culture where issues are dealt with fairly and consistently."
