Questions

Frequently asked

Everything you need to know before getting started.

Is the compliance assessment really free?
Completely. The 18-question assessment gives you an instant risk score and estimated penalty exposure at no cost and with no obligation. It's the fastest way to see where you stand.
What size businesses do you work with?
We focus on small and mid-sized businesses, typically those without a large in-house HR function that still need to stay compliant and scale their people operations. If you're not sure you're a fit, just ask.
Do you replace our HR team or work alongside it?
Both. We can act as your fractional HR function if you don't have one, or supplement an existing team on compliance, HRIS, and strategy projects. Engagements flex to what you already have in place.
How long does a typical engagement take?
A focused compliance audit and remediation plan usually takes a few weeks. Fractional HR is an ongoing monthly partnership. We'll scope timing with you up front so there are no surprises.
Which compliance areas do you cover?
I-9 & work authorization, ACA, payroll and wage & hour, employee handbooks and policy, and general HR practices: the same five domains the free assessment scores you on.
Is my information kept confidential?
Yes. Everything you share, through the assessment or an engagement, is treated as confidential and is never sold or shared. It's used only to help you understand and reduce your risk.
How do we get started?
Two easy ways: take the free assessment to see where you stand, or book a consultation and we'll point you to the right next step.
