HR & Small Business Consulting FAQ’s
Yes, small businesses need HR. The moment you hire your first employee, HR responsibilities kick in. There’s no magic number dictating when to establish a dedicated HR department, but generally, companies start considering it around the 15 to 50 employee mark since this is when most major federal laws apply. HR is crucial for compliance, employee management, and establishing workplace culture, regardless of size.
The most important HR requirements include compliance with labor laws, effective recruitment and hiring processes, clear employee policies and procedures, training and development, and performance management systems. For small to medium-sized businesses, setting up these foundational elements early on is critical to ensure legal compliance and support business growth.
Yes, as a non-practicing lawyer, you get access to my years of legal experience combined with corporate HR work. This unique combination of skills provides a solid foundation for your business needs. I also have an established network with other professionals, allowing me to facilitate access to comprehensive and holistic advice for my clients.
Absolutely. An employee handbook isn’t just a nice-to-have; it’s your HR guide. It sets the tone for your company culture and clarifies policies and expectations. Without it, you’re navigating the employee relationship without a map. And trust me, “winging it” is not a recommended HR strategy.
