HR Q&A: Revised Summer Hours

Question: We are considering putting in place a revised work-week policy for the summer months.  Do we need to revise our handbook to do so?

Answer: No, you don’t need to revise it if it is a trial or something you’re just planning to roll out for this summer. We do recommend that you create a policy for it, however, so that employees understand how to implement it and understand how it relates to existing vacation and PTO policies. You can roll out the temporary policy and have employees review and sign it. It should also have a time period indicated such as the policy is in effect 6/1/19 – 8/31/19.
