A procedure writer composes technical procedures in policy manuals by collaborating with human resources, management, and other department heads to gain a thorough understanding of each area’s operations. The purpose of this is to ensure employees understand company policies, rules, and regulations. As a procedure writer, your duties include researching, writing, and helping to implement procedure standards for a specific project, as well as revising and modifying existing operation manuals. For businesses with complex policies, consulting with a lawyer may be necessary.
| Aspect | Procedure Writer | Technical Writer |
|---|---|---|
| Credentials | Typically requires technical writing experience, industry-specific knowledge, and sometimes certifications in technical communication | Requires strong writing skills, often with degrees in English, communications, or related fields; certifications like STC may be beneficial |
| Work Environment | Often works within industries like manufacturing, engineering, or healthcare, creating detailed procedures and protocols | Works across various industries, producing manuals, guides, and documentation for products or processes |
| Employer & Industry Usage | Common in industries requiring detailed operational procedures and compliance documentation | Used broadly in technology, engineering, and corporate sectors for user manuals and technical documentation |
While both Procedure Writers and Technical Writers create documentation, Procedure Writers focus specifically on operational procedures and protocols within technical or industrial settings. Technical Writers have a broader scope, including manuals, guides, and documentation across various fields.
