Employee
Handbooks & Policy Manuals
With employee handbooks being used with
increasing frequency by employers, care must be taken in drafting, since
courts have ruled that handbooks can be binding contracts in some
circumstances.. Firm attorneys work with employers to carefully tailor
language that serves the purpose of explaining the employer's general
policies, while avoiding liability for breach-of-contract claims. The firm
assists its clients in developing policies covering such
issues as drug and alcohol testing, workplace harassment, FMLA
compliance, and compliance with other federal and state laws.
