HR News and Tips

The employee handbook is mostly treated as a formality. But, it matters more than you think. This is your internal rulebook, legal shield, cultural compass, and operational playbook all in one. But far too often, it’s downloaded, barely updated, skimmed during onboarding, and forgotten until something goes wrong. What’s the problem? When your handbook fails to reflect how your business actually works, or misses (even the smallest) critical legal elements, it can actively work against you. And that can cost you hundreds to thousands of dollars in fines. Here are the most common mistakes you might be making right now, and what to do instead to protect your business.
