Policies people can follow, documentation that holds up, and fast guidance for HR and business leaders—whether your team is employees (W-2), independent contractors (1099), interns, or volunteers. We specialize in multi-state workforces, and we support single-state and growing teams, too.
If it touches hiring, pay, leave, performance, investigations, or exits—we help you do it consistently and defensibly.
Modern handbooks with state addenda, manager-friendly rules, and an update cadence your team can maintain—so policies match how you actually operate.
Exemption analyses, overtime/timekeeping, wage-statement and final-pay compliance, plus commission/bonus plan support—built to reduce risk and simplify administration.
Practical templates and playbooks for the interactive process, FMLA administration, paid leave coordination, and return-to-work—so managers know what to do next.
Offer letters, background-check workflows, required new-hire notices, confidentiality and IP agreements, and onboarding guardrails that scale across states and worker types.
Coaching and PIP frameworks, documentation standards, termination checklists, and reference/rehire policies—so decisions are consistent and defensible.
Intake protocols, investigation plans and reports, corrective-action guidance, and training (anti-harassment, accommodations, interviewing). When issues escalate, you’ll have a clean file and a clear narrative.
