Complimentary On-Demand Webinar Employee Handbooks in California: Key Compliance Requirements & Judgment Calls 

When it comes to employment law compliance, there's no document more important than your employee handbook. Handbooks necessarily address a legion of legal requirements, and they can make or break an employer's ability to pass due diligence or government audits, defend against legal claims made or threatened by employees, and/or make necessary personnel decisions without being under a dark cloud of legal risk.

In this webinar, instead of using slides, we'll review excerpts of a model employee handbook to discuss key compliance requirements, updates, and judgment calls that employers need to address when setting up or updating an employee handbook to meet current legal requirements. The presentation will include key legal updates to make to handbooks under California state law, and discuss why handbooks need to account for differing requirements in other state/city/county jurisdictions where employees work (either remotely or in an employer office).
