Keep Your Employee Handbook Updated
If you purchased Your Employee Handbook a while ago — say, more than a year — take a moment to read it and see if all the information within is accurate and still current. If it’s not it is time to update and redistribute. Hundreds of employers a year find themselves on the losing end of lawsuits that focus on the fact that the polices in their handbook did not match the practices of the company. Further, policies where a specific employee is identified as the point of contact, for example, reporting sexual harassment, update the Handbook if that employee is no longer with your company. Similarly, update any changes to time-off policies, job classifications and the like. Updates are essential if you want to get the most protection out of Your Employee Handbook.
