Cash Handling, Till and Banking Policy
About this document
A practical policy for any hospitality business that takes cash or card payments at a till. It reduces losses and theft, protects honest staff from suspicion, keeps your records accurate for VAT and the accounts, and sets out what happens when the till does not balance.
The document is laid out in the sections below. Each one comes with a plain-English guidance note explaining what it does and what to change.
Our templates are professionally structured starting points for UK businesses, not legal advice. For anything complex, unusual or high-value, have your final version checked by a solicitor.
