If there was ever a time to rethink your employee handbook, it’s now. While 2026 may seem like the natural timeline for rolling out a new handbook, the urgency has less to do with the calendar year and more to do with the significant workplace changes triggered by the new administration and its updated policies, including the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBB Act). The OBBB Act introduces major changes affecting employee benefits, payroll administration, and employer reporting obligations. These developments require immediate attention and thoughtful updates to employee handbook policies. Additional Handbook Updates to Consider for 2025–2026 Beyond the OBBB Act, employers must also prepare for ongoing regulatory and workplace shifts, including: Remote and hybrid work policies Artificial intelligence (AI) use in the workplace Updated paid leave laws Anti-harassment, equity, and inclusion requirements Employee classification and wage-hour compliance
