Individual Policy Updates

Add professionally-crafted policies to your handbook

Employment law has become increasingly complex with the trend toward regional legislation at the state and municipal level. Pay equity, minimum wage, sick leave, and anti-sexual harassment legislation quickly take established company policies and practices out of compliance, creating significant risk for employers. Applying updates across multiple locations adds an additional layer of complexity for some employers. Let Trüpp simplify your compliance efforts. Our experienced professionals stay up to date with new and emerging legislation and craft policies that align with these requirements whether cross-regional or at a single location.

The HR professionals that comprise our compliance team keep their fingers on the pulse of current legislation at the federal, state, and regional levels. Enjoy the peace of mind that comes from knowing your policies are written with the most current requirements in mind.

While it’s important to comply with the details of various employment laws, it is also valuable to minimize liability for your organization. We keep language precise and related to your specific industry and business model while eliminating language that creates unnecessary company responsibility.

Why waste your valuable time researching employment laws and hoping you’ve covered all the bases? Trust the experienced professionals at Trüpp to ensure your policies are on point, aligned with current employment laws and best practices, and written in easy to understand, employee-friendly language.
