Outsourcing HR needs is a way for small to medium-sized businesses to ensure HR compliance while freeing up your leadership to focus on your company's growth rather than complex and time-consuming HR admin paperwork.

And performing any other HR duties and responsibilities as needed.
The first step to maintain HR compliance is to determine which regulations apply to your company. Keep up with laws and regulations at the federal, state, and local level that govern your policies and procedures.
Once you are sure of the regulations required, make sure these are clear in your policies and procedures, and make these policies and procedures available to all employees.
If you are unsure where you stand, it is a good idea to conduct a compliance audit so you can review your current situation and make any updates as needed. Consider getting outside help to review your policies so you can avoid biases and ensure you don't miss any important areas.
The biggest HR issues include:
- Hiring and retaining employees
- Maintaining and protecting employee information
- Properly classifying employees
- Determining exempt vs. nonexempt status
- Managing employee benefits
- Developing and communicating company policies
- Training managers and employees
- Avoiding bias and discrimination in the workplace
- Employee terminations
- Dealing with harassment
