Why Should you Attend

From a compliance perspective, the NLRB, the DOL, and OFCCP will have significant issues to be addressed in 2016. From employment-at-will policies, to wage and hour classifications, to the treatment of independent contractors, organizations will have to ensure that they properly define and manage these issues. For federal contractors, you will additionally have to ensure you comply with recent changes and updates.

From a management perspective, employee handbooks are taking on new importance. Your organization increasingly needs to ensure that it properly communicates key issues that encourage positive employee performance; that it describes the value and importance it receives from positive employees' activities; and that it helps sell the benefits of employment with your organization. Increasingly you will be answering the question: Why should employees work for you.

Unfortunately a nationwide survey of employers revealed that while organizations use employee handbooks to address key business, legal, and talent management challenges, they limit the effectiveness of their handbook policies by using ineffective handbook practices. As the survey report noted, in many organizations there is a disconnection between the drafting and issuing of handbook policies and the practices that ensure those policies are effectively implemented. This issue will become a greater liability in 2016.

Thus to increase the effectiveness of your employment policies, your organization will have to:

Enhance its business, operational, and legal intelligence to ensure it has identified the changing external and internal factors that affect its policies

Increase internal stakeholder participation in the handbook development process to obtain greater employee commitment and operational alignment

Establish new metrics to assess handbook policies and practices performance and measure the achievement of the organization's goals

Implement internal controls that identify and alert management when employee handbook processes fail.
