Our Employment Team works closely with business owners, executives, and human resource professionals to ensure proper employee handbook creation. A comprehensive handbook with clear and well-drafted policies is critical to litigation avoidance or victory.
Ensuring our clients’ employees have access to the standards by which they will be disciplined prevents needless confusion and dissatisfaction. Furthermore, clear-cut rules on disciplinary procedures leave and attendance policies and reporting/complaint procedures create certainty for employers and employees if difficulties arise.
Because employment laws are frequently evolving, we advise clients to audit their employee handbooks and policies regularly to ensure continued compliance with all federal, state and local laws. We assist clients in conducting comprehensive reviews of their employment manuals to identify any problem areas that could make them vulnerable to liability. Our team is adept at finding potential areas of concern and revising relevant policies to conform to the requirements of applicable law.
