Frequently Asked Questions

Does this cover both W-2 employees and subcontractors?

This handbook is written for W-2 employees. It includes a section on worker classification to help protect you from misclassification liability. Subcontractors should have their own agreements, not be covered by your employee handbook.

Does it include OSHA-required policies?

Yes. Your handbook includes injury and illness prevention, hazard communication, PPE requirements, and incident reporting procedures aligned with OSHA standards. We strongly recommend also maintaining a separate Safety Manual for detailed procedures.

What about drug testing for safety-sensitive positions?

Yes. You can indicate during the questionnaire whether your company conducts drug testing. The handbook will include a clear drug and alcohol policy appropriate for safety-sensitive construction roles.
