Employee Policy Handbook

Regardless of the size of your business, having an employee handbook that addresses the company's policies and procedures can be one of the most valuable business documents you will create and use. An employment handbook is the foundation of your relationship with your employees, but it is also the foundation of a risk reduction strategy for employers who want to avoid employment-related litigation.

At Kameli Law Group, LLC we help businesses of all kinds and sizes draft and adopt employee handbooks and other policies that reflect the true intentions of the employer and reduce legal liability.

There are a variety of legal considerations you should take into account when adopting your employee handbooks and policies. We will help you address the implications of federal and state employment laws with regard to policies, including the following:

  • Overtime and other wage and hour policies
  • Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) leave policies
  • Accommodation policies under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)
  • Discrimination and sex harassment policies
  • At-will employment policies
  • Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) complaint policies
  • Administrative and internal complaint policies
Part of running a serious business is giving serious thought to employment policies with the help of an experienced lawyer and putting those policies in writing in the form of an employee handbook. Most critically, a comprehensive employment handbook protects the company from litigation and administrative hearings by clarifying employment policies for workers and managers.
