Labor and employment lawyer Kevin Greene presented at the Connecticut Business & Industry Association (CBIA)’s 2022 Human Resources Conference on March 17th. In his presentation, “Employee Handbooks: From Basic Necessities to Crucial Updates,” Kevin reviewed the purpose of the employee handbook, which policies are must-haves, which need legal updates, and which should be tailored to a company’s make-up and mission. He provided a checklist of crucial policies to include in a handbook as well as three sample policies, including policies on drugs and alcohol and anti-harassment.

The CBIA is a membership-based nonprofit organization that represents the interests of Connecticut member businesses in a range of industries.
