in an
employment at will state such as Texas, and to a lesser extent in
other states, employers may develop and change personnel policies at will
in almost
any kind of employment claim or lawsuit, it will help to be able to
point to clear written policies and to state that employees are
notified of the standards to which they will be held
secret policies are useless – employees should of course have access to whatever policies will apply to them - an unknown policy cannot be used against an ex-employee in an unemployment claim
