CONSULTING - RISK MANAGEMENT
Increase Effectiveness : Problem Resolution

Want to be sure you comply with federal, state, and local requirements? There are many employment laws and regulations to abide by, and keeping up is difficult and time consuming. Some ideas on how to improve your level of compliance are:

• HR Policies & Procedures
• HR Practices Audit
• FLSA Audit
• Harassment Prevention & EEO Training
• Expert Witness Services

HR Policies & Procedures.  The first step to employment law compliance is accurate employment policies and practices.  Up-to-date employment policies provide a tool for managers, set expectations for employees, and assist to ensure consistent treatment. 

HR Practices Audit. You may have some HR practices in place but are unsure whether all aspects are handled appropriately.  Or you may be an in-house professional at a small business who wears many hats. This is a common situation and one that HR Precision can complement in-house personnel to ensure compliance obligations are met.  An audit can be conducted of a specific function or for all HR practices to identify areas acceptable and those needing improvement.  This tool is critical for you to reduce risk by proactively meeting compliance obligations.

FLSA Audit.  One of the most common mistakes by employers in attempt to comply with the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) is misclassification of employees.  Status regarding exempt and nonexempt classification determines employee eligibility for overtime pay, so you want to classify correctly.  HR Precision assists employers to reduce risk by accurately classifying their employees.

Harassment Prevention & EEO Training.  In addition to documented employment policies regarding sexual harassment and discrimination prevention and equal opportunity employment, employers are strongly encouraged to train all employees on these policies and on acceptable behaviors for the workplace. Training is especially important for your managers.  HR Precision can provide this critical training.

Expert Witness Services. Law firms often utilize expert witnesses to provide knowledge, perspective, and expertise regarding a particular topic for a case they are handling.  HR Precision is utilized as a human resource expert in employment-related cases.
