Human Resources
Today’s employment environment is a minefield of liability. There are numerous entities regulating what you must do for your employees:
The Department of Labor
U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement
EEOC
SSA
OSHA
State unemployment commissions
All of these entities are enforcing a myriad of legislation:
Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA)
Employee Polygraph Protection Act
Immigration Reform & Control Act (IRCA)
Equal Pay Act
Federal Income Tax Withholding
Uniformed Services Employment & Re-employment Rights Act of 1994
Federal Insurance Contribution Act (FICA)
National Labor Relations Act (NLRA)
Consumer Credit Protection Act
Labor Management Relations Act
Uniform Guidelines for Employment Selection Procedures
Employment Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA)
Occupational Safety & Health Act (OSHA)
Pregnancy Discrimination Act
Americans with Disabilities Act
Civil Rights Act of 1964
Age Discrimination in Employment Act
Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act (COBRA)
Family Medical Leave Act (FMLA)
Worker Adjustment Retraining Notification Act (WARN)
It’s an alphabet soup of regulations that has to potential to spell disaster. When most people try to “live the American dream”, they aren’t usually thinking about all of these regulations. They are thinking about making a business out of doing what they love. If they are fortunate to grow enough to add employees, they soon discover that owning a business is more than they bargained for.
It’s no wonder that many new business owners partner with a PEO to help keep them compliant. A good HR Manager could easily cost $100,000 per year depending on your region. With a PEO (at least ours) you have access to a professional HR team to give you the advice you need without the back-breaking price tag.
