Every organization should have a core set of policies that cover employee conduct, anti-harassment and anti-discrimination, attendance, performance expectations, and compliance with applicable federal, state, and local employment laws. Keep in mind that these will vary greatly on the size, industry and location of where work is being done at your company. It’s best to work with an HR or law firm when crafting employee policies for a handbook or manual to ensure compliance with federal, state and local employment laws as well as consider administrative application.
