Who is this service for?
This service is designed for small and growing businesses—typically 10–200 employees—that need reliable HR support without building a full internal HR team.
What does it cost?
Pricing is simple, transparent, and based on company size and services needed. Most clients pay less than the cost of a part-time HR hire.
How is this different from a PEO?
Unlike a PEO, we don’t co-employ your workforce or bundle benefits. You keep full control of your employees while we handle the HR operations and guidance.
What HR functions do you handle?
We support core HR operations including onboarding, employee relations, compliance, policy management, payroll coordination, and people operations.
What do you not handle?
We focus on low-risk, high-impact HR operations. If something falls outside our scope, we’ll be clear upfront and help you find the right solution.
How quickly can we get started?
Most clients can get started within 1–2 weeks, depending on company size and current HR setup.
Is this compliant with U.S. labor laws?
Yes. Our processes are designed around U.S. labor laws and compliance best practices to help reduce risk and keep your business protected.
Do you replace an internal HR hire?
We’re often a great alternative to a first HR hire, and we can also complement a small internal HR team by taking day-to-day HR work off their plate.
Will we have a dedicated HR contact?
Yes. You’ll work with a dedicated HR partner who understands your business and owns your HR operations end-to-end.
How do employees interact with you?
Employees can route HR questions and requests through clear, defined channels so issues are handled consistently and efficiently.
What if our company grows or changes?
Our services are designed to scale with your business, so you can add support as your headcount, complexity, or needs evolve.
Do you work with specific industries?
We work with a range of industries and tailor our approach based on your business model, workforce, and regulatory environment.
How do you handle sensitive employee information?
We take confidentiality and data security seriously and follow best practices to protect sensitive employee and company information.
What tools or systems do you use?
We work with modern HR tools and workflows, and we can also adapt to the systems you already use to minimize disruption.
Is there a long-term contract?
We offer flexible engagement terms designed to fit your business, and we’ll outline expectations clearly before you get started.
What happens if we decide to bring HR in-house later?
We can help transition HR responsibilities smoothly if you decide to build an internal team in the future.
