THE TIME TO UPDATE YOUR EMPLOYEE HANDBOOK IS NOW!!!

Written By MerriLyn Gibbs

Some businesses use a form employee handbook or template policies they found on the internet. Some businesses have robust policies, but only require new hires to sign a form acknowledging receipt of the policies and then fail to actually consult those policies when issues arise.

These are missed opportunities. Putting some thoughtful effort into updating and enforcing employment policies will provide critical guidance for management, improve employee morale, and minimize potential legal liability.

Here are three critical suggestions for updates to employee handbooks that healthcare providers and professionals should consider right now.:

Ø  OSHA'S EMERGENCY TEMPORARY STANDARD

Ø  204K FROM HOME AND MEDICAL LEAVE

Ø  ANTI-DISCRIMINATION POLICIES
