Building Your Employee Handbook for Small Business Success

Event description

Purpose: To help every attendee build an Employee Handbook for their business.                          

Today, having an Employee Handbook is a necessity for the Small Business owner. In Louisiana, small businesses face a unique mix of federal and state employment requirements. A well-crafted Employee Handbook is one of the most effective tools for protecting the business, setting expectations, and ensuring consistent operations.                                        

This webinar will guide attendees in the building of their important Employee Handbook. This webinar is Louisiana specific. It will cover providing clear and necessary information to employees, Louisiana law legal protections, providing for consistent operations, At-Will Employment, Louisiana Earned Sick Leave, Louisiana Wage Payment Act, workplace safety and injury reporting, and more.   For Louisiana small businesses, an Employee Handbook is one of the highest-value, lowest-cost tools for compliance, protection, and professionalism.                           

Attendees will receive an explanatory guide through each section of the Employee Handbook, samples of the required content and a step-by-step guide showing exactly how                            In addition, up to 10 small businesses (on a first come first serve basis) will have an opportunity to sign up for A ONE HOUR VIRTUAL CONSULTING SESSION with the speaker to discuss specifics about their business' employee handbook.
