2026 To Do: Your Employee Handbook

Williams Mullen

On this episode of Williams Mullen’s Benefits Companion, host Brydon DeWitt is joined by Stephanie Karn, partner in the Labor, Employment and Immigration Section at William Mullen, to discuss one of the most common questions employers face: what should an employee handbook actually include?

They explore whether every employer truly needs a handbook, why including “everything but the kitchen sink” can sometimes create more problems than it solves, and the core policies that should always be included to set clear expectations and support compliance. If you’re responsible for HR, benefits, or people management, this episode offers practical insights to help you build (or refresh) a handbook that actually works for both your organization and your employees.
