Employee Handbooks: Read ‘Em & Weep?

We hope not! As we approach the end of the year, many employers look to their employee handbook for updates that need to be made for the upcoming year. But it can be difficult to decide (1) how to best structure and format it; (2) what to include; and (3) what to exclude to help ensure you end with a deliverable that employees will actually read, understand, and not use as a legal weapon against you. Join us for the last webcast of the 2026 series, as we review tips for policy updates for 2027. Topics will include:

  • General Tips for Structure and Format
  • Guidance from the courts, EEOC, NLRB, U.S. DOL
  • Tips and trends for policies related to:
    • EEO/AA/Harassment/DEI/Reasonable Accommodation (we could spend an hour just on these!)
    • Paid and unpaid leave (sick, family, medical & more)
    • Wage and hour compliance
    • AI & the workplace…and more!

 

As always, you’ll be able to engage during the program with “live” chat, polling questions, Q & A.
