Don’t be one of Harvester Steve’s stories:

• A Connecticut company had one sentence in their company handbook that resulted in a $58,000.00 fine.
• A landscaper in NY, mistakenly had a policy in his Employee Handbook stating that all work done on weekends, was to be paid at double time.
• A landscaper in California said he did not want a Sexual Harassment policy in his Employee Handbook. Think about that one for a while.
• A landscaper in Florida had an Employee Handbook without an “at-will” policy. Really? Yes, Really!
• A landscaper in Wisconsin had an illegal policy that stated employees’ pay would be docked 30 minutes each day, even if they did not take a meal period.
• An Oregon landscaper with 8 employees had an inaccurate policy that his employees were covered by the FMLA.
• A Pennsylvania landscaper had an inappropriate policy that he would provide his employees with “year-round” employment.
• A Georgia landscaper had an Affirmative Action policy in his employee handbook even though he had no government contracts.
