New employee handbook, replete with regressive policies!

Executive Director informed us managers that the new handbook is almost ready. (She’s been working on it with an employment lawyer & HR.) Vacation and sick accruals have changed. She’s actually trying to REQUIRE employees to give two weeks’ notice lol. Side note, this then prompted a discussion from 6 of 8 in the management team about missing items and accusing employees of stealing stationary, shitty headsets, and office chairs. Yet they can’t quite figure out why we have retention issues… This is my second (nonprofit) job in a row where the ED utilized an employment lawyer to repeal some job perks without any employee participation. It blew up in the previous ED’s face and when everyone complained to me, guess who became the sacrificial lamb? Word to employers/CEOs/EDs, just because you can do this, doesn’t mean you should.
