This is a three-session course - see dates/times below
An employee handbook is useful for communicating with employees. It allows employers to publish policies and rules in a cost-effective, convenient way. However, handbooks must be reviewed carefully for legal compliance. A properly written employee handbook is a vital tool for every employer. A poorly written handbook - or the absence of one - can land your company in serious legal trouble. Depending on how they are written, company policies about at-will employment, confidentiality, harassment, termination and benefits can work for or against you in a dispute. Learn about best practices in preparing and updating handbooks. Get tips on how to deal with the explosion of social media and how to avoid potential legal liabilities in the workplace.
This Premier Course provides a complete and up-to-date summary of laws, court decisions and other rules, regulations and orders relating to employee handbooks.
