Does anyone use state & local law survey books to communicate employment laws to out of state units? If not, how do you communicate that information to multi-state facilities?

I see it is your first post, Welcome!
What's a law survey?
Do you have mulitple locations and if so, what states?
Do you have an employee handbook?
How do you normally disseminate information to employees?
What information are you trying to get out to them?

We do have units in other states, in fact quite a few. Some examples are: New York, Florida, Texas, Ohio, Massachusetts, Illinois, California, Missouri, West Virginia, Pennsylvania . . . .
There is an employee handbook that is distributed to our associates, but I am looking for something to distribute to our field unit HR staff or General Managers. Something they could reference.
We're trying to find something we could purchase on an annual basis that would have the most current employment law info.
Thanks in advance for any advice you can offer.
A law survey is a book that summarizes state and local/county employment laws. There are separate books for each state.
The company for which I work does business in many states and it is becoming expensive to use outside counsel to prepare these books. I am hoping there is another resource out there.
The service is published by BLR, Business & Legal Reports, Inc, 141 Mill Rock Road East, Old Saybrook, CT 06475-4212. Their number is 800-727-5257, [url]www.blr.com[/url].
I am almost certain that you could subscribe to the national information once and then add each state that you need. This puts at your fingertips every labor law existing in each of your states.
