Many companies have an “Employee Handbook.” Some were drafted in the 1970’s and were last edited in 2001. Some HR inherited a handbook that was created by the owners and their family -- and they LOVE it “as is.” Still other employers “borrow” one from a colleague. Employee handbooks are generally reviewed by employees on two occasions: when they think they are being shortchanged out of a benefit, and when they are disgruntled or fired. Then, that handbook is reviewed by their attorney. Laws change and so should employee handbooks. The goal is objective information not “warm & fuzzy.”
October topics:
- Drug & Alcohol
- Information Technology
- Social Media
- Wage/Hour
- FMLA / Medical Leave
And much more!
Jeff Shoskin, a Partner with Frost Brown Todd, will share those topics that should be included and will reveal topics and language to avoid. He also will discuss the unique problems faced by employers with locations in different states. Bottom line. One size cannot fit all.
