| 1. Am I legally required to have an employee handbook?
No law—state or federal—requires your organization to have an employee handbook. But frequently employers lose lawsuits because employees were
wrongfully terminated for violating policies of which they were never
informed. Having a handbook immediately places every employee on notice
of what is acceptable and unacceptable conduct.

2. What if I need to make changes after my handbook is finished?
We can alter your handbook at any time before it has been delivered. After you
receive your handbook on disk, a nominal charge will be applied to any
out-of-warranty handbooks. For handbooks within the one-year warranty
from the date of purchase, a nominal charge will be applied only for
modifications not required by a change in the law or in your business
operations.

3. What if laws affecting my policies change or new laws are drafted?
We archive each client’s handbook in case of future changes and additions in
Texas and federal law to make it easy to modify or update your handbook
document. Both handbook packages include a one-year warranty from the
date of purchase should a change in the law or in your operations
require your handbook to be modified.

4. Can I simply add new policies to the handbook I already have?
Our Select Handbook Package allows you to choose from any employment policies
we offer and include them with policies you submit to us at no extra
charge. You can even submit your entire handbook and we’ll incorporate
it with any new policies you select. See our
Handbooks page for more information on the Select Handbook Package.

5. How do I know these policies are legally accurate?
Our handbooks have been revised and updated in conjunction with the Austin-based law firm of Brown
McCarroll, L.L.P., one of the top firms in the state of Texas.

8. Can I edit the handbook after it’s sent?
Handbooks are burned on a write-protected disk in PDF format as part
of the license agreement. If you prefer, your handbook can be e-mailed to you for review prior to delivery. Just let us know when ordering.
