Why Should You Attend:

Regardless of the size of your organization, policies and employee handbooks are useful tools. They can limit your liability as an organization and set the culture for your business. Policies and handbooks help you communicate your compliance with laws to your employees. Handbooks and policies help ensure your employees know your expectations, understand the rules of conduct in your company and are aware of benefits. Policies and handbooks are vital communications tools between your company and your employees. Well-prepared policies and handbooks can protect the employer from potential litigation and aid in defending against claims.
