Employee Handbooks Unveiled: Exploring Secret Power, Navigating Hidden Pitfalls


RECORDED TRAINING COURSE


Believe it or not, your employee handbook can be one of your most valuable tools for communicating with your employees.  A properly written Employee Handbook lets employees know what you expect of them and what they can expect when they work for your organization.

Yes, there are potential pitfalls. As an employer your handbook policies not only must comply with federal and state employment laws, (and in some cases, local laws) in each location where your employees work. But these laws seem to constantly change. How do you make sure your employee handbooks are up to date – particularly if you have employees in more than one state? To ensure your handbook remains accurate, establish a regular review process. Additionally, consider incorporating feedback from employees and managers to keep the handbook relevant and practical. Regular updates and clear communication will help you maintain compliance and foster a positive work environment.

Session Highlights:

  • Why you need an employee handbook in the first place;
  • What key hot button issues need to be addressed;
  • How to factor remote work issues into your employee handbooks;
  • Dealing with overlapping federal, state and local laws;

  • And more
