Stephens County adopts mandatory harassment training and handbook updates
Summary
The board approved three employee handbook changes, including a mandatory harassment training policy and a vacation payout policy; staff will implement annual training for all county employees.
The Stephens County Board of Commissioners approved revisions to the employee handbook that include a required harassment‑prevention training policy and an updated vacation payout procedure.
County staff said the change implements a training requirement provided free through a vendor arrangement (ACCG) and that all county employees will be required to complete the training and associated test annually. Finance staff and other commissioners praised Kristen Miani for her work drafting the handbook. Finance Director James Lrod acknowledged staff contributions during the quarterly financial presentation: "Kristen, well job well done on the handbook," he said.
Commissioners approved the three policy changes and authorized the chairman to sign the resolution. Staff said the remainder of the handbook will be returned to the board in a later meeting for additional review.
