The following model labor and employment policies are offered to assist employers that are composing their own business-specific employee handbooks. Employers can choose the policies that are applicable to their business, fit their workforce, and use as needed. For instance, FMLA only applies to employers with 50 or more employees, so you may not need an FMLA policy.
These policies were developed to assist employers and employees in better understanding and complying with labor and employment laws and regulations. Employers can copy and paste the model policies that they would like to add to their existing Employee Handbooks or to create their own Employee Handbooks.
When protesting a claim for unemployment benefits on the basis that the claimant was discharged for violating a company policy, the employer must provide details on how the claimant’s actions or failure to act violated which specific policy. Note that policies prohibiting mistakes, accidents, poor workmanship or bad judgment may not provide a sufficient basis for protesting unemployment benefits.
