Learn how to create an effective and legally compliant handbook that works best for your company.
Keeping pace with the ever-changing landscape of employment laws presents a perpetual challenge for employers. Employers, especially those with remote workers and those operating in multiple jurisdictions, are facing difficulties in creating compliant handbooks that appropriately address jurisdictional-specific laws and remain user-friendly. Employers must also navigate new, additional challenges posed by recent NLRB decisions that impact how employment policies should be drafted. This presentation will help identify essential handbook provisions and will discuss evolving trends to help employers identify key policies to include in handbooks. It will also discuss strategies to draft a compliant handbook across multiple jurisdictions when local and state laws conflict. Finally, this webinar will discuss those recent NLRB decisions, and how employers can respond.
