In all the hustle and bustle of sprucing everything up and making updates, don’t forget that your employee handbook may also be in need of some attention. If you don’t currently have an employee handbook, there are [many reasons](https://blog.compliancehr.com/hubfs/External%20PDFs/White%20Papers/7+%20Reasons%20Why%20Every%20Business%20Should%20Have%20an%20Employee%20Handbook.pdf) to consider implementing one this season. Here are two PolicySmartTM features you can use to get your handbook cleanup underway. PolicySmart News allows you to see a timeline of when new regulations are going into effect, and now is a good time to review what will be happening over the next few months. Don’t forget that you can add effective dates that are relevant to your jurisdiction and company to your calendar directly from PolicySmart.

As we continue to update the reports on the Reference Center, more topics will include the content smart link feature. PolicySmartTM News: In addition to the helpful PolicySmart News page, where you can view, filter, and create calendar reminders for updates that will be going into effect, there is a monthly email that summarizes the updates that have been made on PolicySmart.

One of the factors used to determine an employee’s classification is the Duties Test, which examines an employee’s job duties.

I’m Locked Out of My Account](https://blog.compliancehr.com/compliancehr-updates/help-im-locked-out-of-my-account) Feb 24, 2023 11:00:00 AM If you’re scratching your head, not sure what password to use to access your ComplianceHR Platform, don’t feel bad - it’s happened to all of us at one point in time or another! We want to share a few pointers that can help you reset your password with more ease when you find yourself in this situation. Resetting your password Any user can use the “Forgot Your Password” link on the login page. After clicking the link and entering your email address, you should receive an email with a link that will allow you to reset your password within 15 minutes. Your new password will need to be eight characters long with one capital letter and one special character. For a little added security, feel free to use a password generator. Don’t receive the password reset email If you don’t receive the password reset email, be sure to check your spam folder or junk mail filter. If you still don’t find the email, consider whether your account could be set up under a different email address. If the password reset email remains missing, you can reach out to your company’s Platform admin or [support@compliancehr.com](mailto:support@compliancehr.com) for assistance. Locked out of your account If you have had too many failed login attempts, you will be locked out of your account. If you need to access your account sooner than the lockout period listed on screen, reach out to your company’s Platform admin or [support@compliancehr.com](mailto:support@compliancehr.com) to unlock your account and reset your password. For Platform admins Platform admins can reset passwords and unlock user accounts. After logging in, click your name on the top right of the screen and select "Configure Platform Users." Then find the user you need to update and click "View/Edit" next to their name. To update the user’s password, choose "Change password." Select a new password that is eight characters long with one capital letter and one special character, or utilize a password generator and select parameters. The password will not update until you hit the “Save” button. Send the login email address and generated password to the user so they can access the system. If a user is locked out, visit “Configure Platform Users” and click “View/Edit” next to the Platform user’s name. Click on the “Unlock User” link and save. The user will not receive an automated notification when you unlock their account, so be sure to let them know the update has been made. Additional help If you need additional help with a password reset or any technical issue, please reach out to us at [support@compliancehr.com](mailto:support@compliancehr.com).  [Read More](https://blog.compliancehr.com/compliancehr-updates/help-im-locked-out-of-my-account) [Navigator IC](https://blog.compliancehr.com/compliancehr-updates/tag/navigator-ic) ### [Navigator IC Questionnaire Checklist](https://blog.compliancehr.com/compliancehr-updates/navigator-ic-questionnaire-checklist) Feb 17, 2023 11:00:00 AM Navigator IC is designed to help you determine the risk of classifying a worker as an independent contractor. This solution uses a questionnaire to gather information about the engagement, the work, the contractor, and the company’s relationship with the contractor that is then used to complete the risk assessment. We have developed the checklist below to help you, or those you assign a questionnaire to, be prepared to complete the Navigator IC questionnaire. We recommend gathering the following information before beginning the questionnaire.
