Company policies, procedures, and handbooks are an essential part of business operations. 

These documents lay the foundation for a healthy working relationship with employees.   Depending on the size, nature, or location of your business, you may be required by law to have certain policies in writing, and some of them may even be required to be in an employee handbook.  It is no longer enough that you put a policy or handbook in place and make it available to your employees.  Laws are continually being enacted and older laws are revised and interpreted differently over time.  As employment laws continue to change, employers need someone in their corner helping to ensure that their handbooks and other personnel policies are up-to-date and compliant with existing rules and regulations, while still meeting the needs, goals, and objectives of their businesses.

At Skoler, Abbott & Presser, our team of skilled lawyers has experience with policies of all types from absenteeism and leaves of absence, to employee conduct and performance management, to safety rules, and wage and hour.  Our attorneys can revise your outdated policies and handbooks, or draft new policies tailored to meet your specific needs.  We can also help establish systems to implement those policies and provide easy-to-understand training for employees at all levels.

Our attorneys have experience working with businesses of all sizes and can tailor solutions to meet your business needs.  Whether it is a single policy required by state law or maintaining a comprehensive national employee handbook, our attorneys have the knowledge, experience, and dedication to ensure that your policies enhance your business relations while minimizing litigation risks.
