Hi Brenda, Many of our policies link to State and Federal laws as appropriate, and it is a challenge ensuring that the links are checked and updated on a regular basis. Ideally, it's the responsibility of the policy's designated responsible officer to notify me when a link has changed, but I also make a point of checking links within our policies on a regular basis to see if they are still active.

Does anyone else include links to state law, how do make sure the most current law is being cited in your policy and/or what other best practices are employed in writing policy mandated by law? We are observing summer efficiency hours. I am available from 7-4:30 M-TH. We are closed on Fridays.
