We found a typo in our employee handbook and were wondering how binding it was. The typo concerns the number of weeks off. It currently reads that "after 12 months employees get twee weeks vacation and after 13 months they get three weeks vacation." The 13 is incorrect. We are a small, non-profit in the state of New Mexico, if that makes any difference. Employees are required to sign and acknowledgement form at the back of the handbook and those are kept in employee files. So now the question is, do we correct the typo or must we honor the three weeks since that it was people understood when they signed? Also, do we require people to sign after we make a correction like that?
