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.

6. Can I submit our logo or other artwork to be included in the handbook?

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.
