Is this joke getting old yet? 😄 Let’s talk about your employee handbook disclaimer! A handbook disclaimer protects your company! It:
- Ensures employees know your handbook is not 100% comprehensive
- Informs employees how to get help with any of your handbook’s content
- Reiterates employees’ at-will status
- Makes it clear that your handbook isn’t an employment contract
- Emphasizes that the policies within are subject to change
- Renders all other versions obsolete
In this article, we’ll talk about why disclaimers are important, what your disclaimer should — and shouldn’t — include, and how to create an effective disclaimer for your employee handbook.
