Course Description
“Did you know that 60% of employers face legal risks due to outdated or poorly updated employee handbooks?”
A recent HBR study revealed that these oversights could lead to lawsuits costing companies an average of $750,000—not to mention the impact on reputation.
An employee handbook is a vital tool for communicating key organizational information to employees and others. It outlines:
-
- Expectations from employees and what employees can expect from the company.
- Workplace policies and how employees are expected to integrate into the culture.
- Formalized mutual expectations, creating both opportunities and risks.
On one hand, well-crafted handbooks can enhance your human capital, boost competitiveness, and improve both individual and organizational performance. On the other, poorly written handbooks can:
-
- Impede business objectives.
- Increase employment-related liabilities.
- Limit managerial flexibility by unintentionally committing to procedural safeguards.
According to a memorandum from the NLRB’s General Counsel, incorrectly designed handbooks can even violate the law and have a “chilling effect” on employee activities.
In this interactive webinar, Ronald Adler will guide you through how to structure employee handbooks that:
-
- Provide essential information about your organization and its position in the marketplace.
- Communicate clear expectations to employees.
- Highlight the benefits employees receive when the organization succeeds.
Join Now to ensure your employee handbook serves as a tool for success and compliance, not a legal liability!
