Have you considered the legal implications of each practice, policy you implement? How does it really impact the work place in terms of productivity and employee morale? Does your current handbook address employee selection, discrimination and harassment; performance evaluations, training, promotion a d transfers, downsizing, workforce reductions and recall rights. Is sufficient language dedicated to at-will and employment contract issues, discipline and/or terminations? Are employee privacy and record-keeping provisions clearly stated and easy to understand as they relate to surveillance, searches and intrusions? Have you defined your drug testing protocol or medical information requirements? Do your supervisors know what to do and what to ask if they suspect an employee is working under the influence? During litigation, a well-written handbook can serve as your best defense and a poorly written handbook can land you a significant and costly judgement. That is why it is important to have your policies and procedures drafted by competent professionals on a regular basis.
