No. Your published employee handbook does not update itself when employment laws change. You still need to review and approve updates before re-issuing the handbook to employees.
The Smart Employee Handbook Builder is part of BerniePortal Compliance and opens in Mineral. Employers and Compliance Feature Admins reach it from Compliance → HR Resources, then Access HR resources.
When a law change affects a handbook policy, Mineral sends an alert that identifies what changed, which state it applies to, and which policy needs updating. Updated compliant language is pre-written for you to review and approve, then re-issue to employees (including e-signature collection when you use that option).
BerniePortal does not rewrite a published handbook on its own. Staying current means acting on the alert in Mineral, then redistributing the approved handbook.
