Employee Handbooks

Having a comprehensive, up-to-date employee handbook is an employer’s first line of defense against employment law claims. A handbook also introduces new employees to the policies and culture of your company, provides a framework for managers and supervisors to maintain consistency in organizational practices, and sets a standard for employee performance management and discipline. Many companies’ handbooks provide limited-to-no defense against a variety of employment law claims, and fail to keep pace with developments in employment law. Barran Liebman attorneys work one-on-one with employers to develop employee handbooks, or revise existing handbooks and policies. The result of that collaborative process is an individually tailored handbook that meets legal standards for compliance while capturing the unique culture of each workplace. We recommend that employers review and revise their handbooks annually in order to maintain compliance with new and evolving laws.
