Create Your Own Employee Handbook: A Legal & Practical Guide for Employers Sixth Edition

Let me just begin by saying that the content of this book was SO apparently solid that, even though it arrived bent and warped from water damage (not as advertised), I cancelled the return I had commenced and have held on to it since, in all its deformed glory. This book saved me hundreds in legal fees. It (1) provides the foundation for any company's handbook, whether you're starting from scratch or reviewing and supplementing an existing one, (2) provides additional or alternative language to consider depending on your situation, (3) provides a checklist on the outer pages so that you can keep track of sections you want to incorporate into your new/existing handbook, (4) is organized how you would want your handbook to be organized, and (5) is so easy to understand and implement that anyone could make their own handbook. All I wish is that the book also came with the sample language on a disc so that I could save hours of time in adopting and revising some of the language. This book is a must-have for those wanting to create a handbook on their own.

Very informative and easy to use and reference when writing your company's handbook.

Helpful guide. Used it as one of many sources to create a handbook.

This book gives specifics needed in making your handbook street legal while allowing you to mold it to fit your situation. Big help, big aid in writing a comprehensive handbook that keeps the vulture lawyers at the gate.

great material..

Very helpful when designing your own employee handbook and the downloadable forms made it well worth the money. I also liked the discussions as to why a policy should be included.

I would recommend this book to any employer or HR advisor with US employees. It saves a fortune on legal fees

Waste of time, the laws change so often, just get a template from any HR company like Mammoth, they update it when laws change.
