Questions, answered
You’ll get matched with a dedicated HR Partner who gets to know your business and does the hands-on work as it comes up — employee relations, compliance and risk, hiring and onboarding, terminations and offboarding, performance, total rewards, and documentation.
We understand that your HR needs can change by the week. Your HR Partner will reply within eight business hours to confirm they’ve received your request. Next, your HR Partner will help prioritize urgent issues, and work with you to determine a timeline for tackling HR tasks.
Pricing is available upon request. Schedule a call to learn more.
We’re not legal counsel, and highly sensitive matters like harassment claims should be routed to an attorney or independent investigator. As the employer, you lead termination and discipline conversations and make the final calls on policies and people. Your HR Partner prepares you and can be there to support.
We match you with an HR Partner based on your business size, state, and industry, so we already understand the HR rules and challenges you’re working with. It’s a match, not an application, and every business that signs up gets an HR Partner. (Add-on available for eligible Plus and Premium customers.)
