A Business-Minded Approach To Employment Law

Knowledgeable Advice And Training For Your Human Resources Department

The foundation of any strong business is a strong understanding of legal compliance. This is especially true in how employers interact with and manage employees. Everything from payroll practices and classification of employees (i.e., exempt versus nonexempt and independent contractors versus employees) to discrimination awareness programs and the prevention of harassment is connected to labor and employment law issues.

The best thing you can do for your business and for your employees is to properly train your human resources (HR) personnel and employees, whether you are a large organization with a department devoted to employee relations or you are a sole proprietor who handles every aspect of business management.
