Documenting policies
I would like your advice on whether or not you feel we need to have a separate document that outlines BYOD and Teleworking or it would be sufficient to put these policies in our Staff Handbook which is quite extensive.

ISO 27001 does not prescribe how documents should be grouped, so organizations are free to use the approach that better suits them. Our general recommendation is to put policies together only up to the size the document is manageable. People tend not to read large documents, and they also are difficult to handle in case they are in physical format.
