One
very important step for employers to take in
managing employment law risk is the
development, implementation, and maintenance of appropriate human
resource policies and procedures.
Often many of these are embodied in an employee
handbook.
Improperly done, this process may
make things worse, not better. Employment policies that
are unlawful, impractical, not actually applied as written,
or out of date can be worse than no policies at
all.
The human resource policies that are appropriate
will vary considerably from one employer to another,
based on numerous factors, including the industry,
employee job duties, working conditions, management
structure, company culture, and management
philosophy.
The attorneys of Harris Dowell Fisher & Harris, L.C.
regularly work with clients to develop employee
manuals and other HR policies. We often review existing
handbooks and policies for legal compliance,
make required updates, and provide practical
suggestions based on the client's needs and our experience with the
application and enforcement of HR policies.
