Set up an approval workflow
New policies and revisions go through a review and approval process before being published to employees.

Track employee acknowledgements
When a policy is published, employees confirm they have read and understood it. Track who has and hasn't acknowledged each policy.

Set policy review schedules
Add a review frequency to each policy (annual, every 2 years). A dashboard view flags policies overdue for review.
