Employee Handbooks

Communicate your culture, policies, and expectations effectively

The Importance of an Employee Handbook

While employee handbooks often are a neglected and undervalued tool, handbooks serve many purposes. A well-written handbook informs employees of the employer’s culture, policies, and expectations. In addition, an up-to-date, thoughtfully drafted handbook tailored to your organization’s unique needs is a strong line of defense against litigation and liability. By contrast, an outdated, poorly written handbook can cause legal and practical headaches for Human Resources and management.
