The #metoo movement made it very clear that your employee handbook needs to show employees how to behave and what procedures must be followed when they don’t.
Your handbooks must be legally compliant, and there are clear solutions to getting there. What’s exciting is those handbooks can also play a role in defining company culture!
Do your employees want to read your handbook? Is it interesting? Attractive? Positive? Did they have any role in creating it?
How can you take advantage of graphics, multi-media, and online storage, in creating and sharing your handbook?
In this fast-moving training, attorney, author, and speaker, Don Phin, will take us through the basics of handbook compliance. Don will remind us about the importance of staying compliant with a wide range of laws, including those promulgated by Federal, State, and Municipal governing bodies, along with the myriad of regulations and case laws surrounding the interpretation of those laws.
Then Don will focus on the opportunities available in creating great employee handbooks. He will discuss how you can focus your handbook on defining and reinforcing your company culture, vision, mission, values, goals, and more.
Finally, he’ll talk about bringing your employee handbook to life and the opportunities that have been created by graphics, media, and the online storage and dissemination of handbooks.
