EMPLOYEE HANDBOOKS

As economic times worsen, current and former employees are targeting employers for cash settlements. Regulatory agencies are also looking at employers for sources of revenue, increasing inspections and penalties to replenish government coffers. The Federal and state government and agencies continue to add new laws and regulations every year and your employee handbook should reflect the latest changes in the law. Here’s why:

HOW IT WORKS

  • A ROAD MAP FOR MANAGER Make sure your managers understand their current obligations. Don’t rely on their past expertise. Give them the policy and procedure that will guide them to the correct application of employment law.
  • GIVE EMPLOYEES CLEAR BOUNDARIES Don’t let assumptions and verbal policies come back to bite you. As employment laws change, so should your written rules.
  • PREVENT FAVORS & EXCEPTIONS Often times, company policies are not consistently enforced because there is no clear written policy. With an up to date handbook, management can be trained to apply and enforce policy as outlined in the handbook.
  • PREVENT DISCRIMINATION & HARASSMENT Most of these lawsuits could have been prevented if proper policies were in place, and followed. The nuances of discrimination and harassment are continually evolving. Don’t get caught with outdated procedures.

Why not buy a customizable handbook template online? Employment policy is tricky business. Do you know which laws apply to your business? Do you know what your obligations are for the choices you make in selecting policy? Are you an expert on employment law? Do you understand how HR best practices should be applied once you have proper policy in your handbook?
