EE & LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT
One of the most difficult parts of managing a business isn’t sales or getting work done, it’s managing your employees. Our team is trained, experienced, and equipped with the tools they need to help you get the most out of your team, as well as make sure they are trained in your business practices, policies, and legal issues that they can impact. We develop and implement training for all levels of employee, from general workers, to management, and even executives and their successors.
Succession Planning
Step 1: Identify critical positions
Critical positions are the focus of succession planning efforts. Without these roles, the department or agency would be unable to effectively meet its business objectives.
DISC Profile Assessments
DiSC is a personal assessment tool used to improve work productivity, teamwork and communication. DiSC is non-judgmental and helps people discuss their behavioral differences.
Harassment Prevention & Training
The main objective of workplace harassment training is to teach managers and supervisors the nature of harassment in the workplace, how you can help prevent it, and what to do if, despite our best efforts, it occurs in our organization.
ELEARNING
As an employer, you have a lot of responsibilities when it comes to ensuring that your employees can work for you safely and that your managers know how to address problems when they arise.
Our online training makes it easier than ever before to train your team on a variety of topics. You can ensure that you are delivering the information they need when it’s wanted and needed most.
AVAILABLE COURSES:
Workplace Harassment Training
As an employer, you have a lot of responsibilities when it comes to ensuring that your employees can work for you safely and that your managers know how to address problems when they arise.
Progressive Discipline Course for Managers/Supervisors
As an employer, you can terminate any employee you want, any time that you want. You don’t have to give them notice. You don’t need a reason. That’s called “Employment at Will.”
HUMAN RESOURCE INFORMATION SYSTEMS
Finding the technology you need to streamline your HR tasks can be a costly headache. That’s why we’ve done hard work for you. We constantly test and evaluate different systems so we can help you get going with the right one for your needs quickly. By having software you can rely on, you can speed up a lot of processes you that you have to do, as well as implement new ones that you might be skipping over now because they are too time-consuming or costly to spend time on. So let us help you improve your efficiency with better Human Resource Information Systems.
OPERATIONAL SERVICES
It wasn’t that long ago that the majority of companies were choosing to keep their HR functions in house. But now over 50% of large companies and even higher percent of smaller companies are making the move to outsource all or part of their HR needs. Why? It frees you up to use your staff and budget to focus more on core competencies for the your business. HR doesn’t generate revenue, but it demands a lot of time and resources. Outsourcing your HR to us almost always saves you money too. Because we have a team of dedicated professionals across a variety of areas, we can focus in on getting things done efficiently – saving you time, the overhead of additional staff, and still giving you greater access to a variety of information and resources you would normally have trouble acquiring. Our staff also undergoes constant training (at our expense and not yours) to help us stay up to date on the latest laws and regulations. Then means you reduce your risk of compliance violations significantly. So let’s take a look at how we can help you lighten your HR load!
AVAILABLE COURSES:
Selection / Hiring / Retention
Whether you have an established recruiting and onboarding process or you are still trying to set one up, we can help. We’ve worked with a variety of companies over many industries and utilized a variety of technology over the years.
Performance Evaluations
These are the five goals of an effective employee evaluation process. The employee and the supervisor are clear about the employee’s goals, required outcomes or outputs, and how the success of the contributions will be assessed.
Wellness Programs
Most people can get behind the idea that health, happiness, and productivity at work are related concepts, and that companies have an opportunity to foster all three—to everybody’s benefit—with a corporate wellness program.
Job Descriptions
A job description summarizes the duties of a position and states the essential responsibilities of the job. A company relies on a job description to relay this information regarding a work role to potential candidates to encourage qualified applicants to apply.
Safety Audits & Safety Training
Inspection of work areas and audits of safety programs are tools that can be used to identify problems and hazards before these conditions result in accidents or injuries.
Labor Law Compliance
Compliance is more than hanging up the latest Labor Law poster. Just deciphering and keeping up with changes of federal labor laws can be difficult – COBRA, HIPAA, FLSA, ADA, FMLA – so we understand how trying to comply with these and other HR labor laws can become downright overwhelming.
FMLA
The Family and Medical Leave Act (“FMLA”) provides certain employees with up to 12 workweeks of unpaid, job-protected leave a year, and requires group health benefits to be maintained during the leave as if employees continued to work instead of taking leave.
OSHA
Under the OSHA law, employers have a responsibility to provide a safe workplace. This is a short summary of key employer responsibilities.
H.R. Audits
A Human Resources Audit is a way to review your current processes, policies, and documentation for managing your employees. It helps you identify areas that need improvement.
H.R. Outsourcing
If your company is considering outsourcing all or part of your Human Resources functions, then you are part of a growing trend of people that are seeing the benefits.
Compensation & Benefits
While employee benefits used to be considered a fringe, or extra, benefit, now it is expected that companies will offer some form of “perk” to their staff.
Employee Handbooks
An employee handbook, sometimes also known as an employee manual or staff handbook, is a book given to employees by an employer. Usually, the employee handbook contains information about company policies and procedures.
STRATEGIC PLANNING
Developing strategies and planning ahead is often one of the most difficult things for a business to make the time to do. It can be hard to know what to do, when to do it, and what the ramifications of a decision will be. Since 1998, we have been business owners and managers just like you to develop the strategies and plans that you need to keep your company on track and profitable. We also can help you navigate through mergers & acquisitions.
