Webinar | Built to Protect: Employee Handbooks for Construction

Employee handbooks shouldn’t collect dust like an outdated set of plans in the job trailer, but too often, they do.

Join Mikel Johnson of myHRcounsel on Wednesday, June 10 at 2 p.m. ET for a practical, construction-focused session on what your handbook should really be: a working tool your supervisors can rely on in the field—and your office can stand behind.

hh2 is partnering with myHRcounsel to bring you construction-specific HR guidance from attorneys who understand the realities of your industry. Together, we’ll walk through real-world scenarios construction companies face every day and show how clear, compliant policies help you manage them with confidence.

From multi-site attendance issues to discipline decisions under tight deadlines, you’ll see how to connect policy to practice in a way that actually holds up on the job.

Learn how to:

Turn policies into tools your team will actually use
Build and apply policies that work in real jobsite conditions, including:

• Addressing timekeeping and attendance issues across multiple crews
• Enforcing drug testing requirements consistently
• Handling discipline situations that arise mid-project

Avoid common handbook mistakes that create risk
Not all policies protect you—some can expose you. Learn how to spot and fix:

• Vague language that leaves too much room for interpretation
• Inconsistently applied policies that create liability
• Gaps in coverage around overtime, conduct, and attendance

Register today to learn how to build an employee handbook that works in the field and protects you when it matters most.
