Compliance Services
Human Resources Consultation
Whether you are a startup or an existing business, you probably have questions. We can be a resource for you and provide guidance through the often confusing, murky waters of employment law. We can provide consultation on a project or hourly basis, or on retainer. As our client, you can rest assured that you will be kept up to date about new regulations and requirements related to employment law.
Compliance Auditing
We will take a detailed look at your current practices to be sure things are being done correctly, legally, and efficiently. An HR audit can reveal areas of liability for your company and provide the groundwork for a game plan to move forward.
HR Policy Writing and Employee Handbooks
The basis of a company’s human resources function is a well-written employee handbook with clear, concise policies that your employees can understand. The HR Connection can help you develop your handbook, customized to your company, along with the appropriate procedures and forms. An employee handbook lets your employees know what is expected of them and what they can expect from you. When the handbook is consistently followed, it reduces liability and the risk of lawsuits.
Training Topics
Training Topics
The HR Connection provides training for all employees and specific training for managers. Each training session is one to two hours, depending upon your needs.
It is imperative that your managers and supervisors are properly trained in human resources topics. An untrained manager can put your company at serious risk with an idle question during an interview or inconsistent discipline practices. We train your employees on how to conduct an interview and how to handle discipline situations and performance reviews.
Training for all employees includes such topics as Preventing Harassment and Communication. These are interactive sessions that provide employees with the opportunity to practice what they learn during the session.
Talent Management
Job Postings, Recruiting and Interviewing
The HR Connection will work with you to write engaging job postings that will attract the kind of applicants you want. We will assist with identifying the best outlets for recruiting those candidates and screen applicants for you. We can also assist with the interview process.
Employee Orientation Program Design
Onboarding a new employee is an important process, and you don’t get a second chance to make a good first impression! We can help you design your orientation and onboarding program. From filling out that important paperwork and learning about benefits to meeting co-workers and learning the job – we help you make your new employee’s first few days a success.
Job Descriptions
A well-written job description is important to both the employee and the employer. It sets the minimum standards for the employee so he or she knows the scope and responsibilities of the job. It can protect the employer against discrimination claims and can provide necessary information about essential functions to a medical professional in a worker’s comp situation. The HR Connection will develop a standard format for your company’s job descriptions to provide consistency.
Benefit Design
Time-off Policies
Providing your employees with time off for relaxation is a good way to reward them and makes you attractive as an employer. We can help you design a time-off program that works within your company’s budget.
