About this ebook
The average lawsuit settlement settlement is $165,000!
It takes just one disgruntled employee or applicant to file a lawsuit against you. It is crucial for companies (of all sizes) to reduce the risk of lawsuits by creating a legally compliant employee handbook.
The employee handbook is the most important communication tool between you and your employees. It also helps supervisors and managers to manage the workforce. A handbook tells employees what the company expects from them and what they can expect from the company, i.e.,
“What are my working hours?”
“Who do I complain to about my supervisor’s sexual advances?”
“Am I eligible for Holiday pay?”
“What is the dress code?”
A well-written employee handbook will answer these questions and more.
It is always safer to rely on written procedures rather than common practices of the business or unwritten procedures.
