Seyfarth Synopsis: Although there's no
right or wrong time to do a handbook and policy update, we
recommend doing them annually, as California law continually
changes. Fall is a good touch point to make changes for the next
year start, particularly since new laws typically become effective
on January 1.
Though it's late October, California temperatures just now
are dropping out of the 90s. Meanwhile, stores are full of pumpkins
and you may even spy leaves falling from the trees. Could Fall be
finally here?
Fall is not just the time to get your sweaters out from under
the bed and dust off last year's Halloween decorations—in
fact, with the recent end of the
legislative session, it's a gourd time to make sure your
employee handbook is ready for the year ahead. We have some tips
for your company to make sure your handbook and policies are as
perfect as that first slice of warm pumpkin pie.
