Dear Reader and User,
On behalf of the Tennessee Chamber of Commerce & Industry and the law firm of Ogletree, Deakins, Nash, Smoak & Stewart, P.C., we would like to welcome you to the use of this unique publication. We have strived to create for you an extremely practical guide for use in the preparation, revision, and review of your own employee handbook or individual employment policies.
There are very few aspects of the employment relationship that raise as many varying legal concerns as the preparation and use of employment policies. At the same time, few things have such great effect on the practical side of the employment relationship – from employee motivation, to job satisfaction, to quality performance – as an employee handbook. This manual is unique in that it addresses both the practical and legal issues involved in the creation and implementation of employment policies in one easy-to-use publication. It also is unique in that it is tailored for use exclusively by Tennessee employers.
Our hope is that you will benefit not only from the sample policies provided, but that you will also take the time to review the legal analyses included in...
