Select Board authorizes additional funds to complete employee handbook
Summary
After discussing hours and fees for HRMaine’s work rewriting the town employee handbook, the board approved an additional $2,000 to complete the project and ensure compliance with recent federal and state law changes.
Board members reviewed HRMaine’s progress on a comprehensive overhaul of the town’s employee handbook and job descriptions. Members said roughly 20 pages were reviewed in a recent working session; the consultant’s rate was discussed (reportedly $150 per hour), and the board discussed overall costs already charged and remaining time to finish the rewrite.
A motion was made and seconded to authorize an additional $2,000 to HRMaine to complete the handbook work; the board voted to approve additional funding and to charge the expense to the professional services line in the general government budget. Board members asked that the final product be cleaned up and then forwarded to counsel for any necessary legal review before formal adoption.
