According to a recent survey, 44% small businesses established it was increasingly difficult to manage HR, and 61% said they would find it valuable if their existing trusted advisor – accountant, attorney or other consultant – was prepared to offer guidance on HR and regulatory compliance.
This past fall, the Paychex Small Business Survey also supported that 1 in 5 small business owners lack confidence in their HR function. Confidence is one thing, but awareness and compliance is another – especially since a lack of awareness may lead to costly fines and penalties.
Small business owners want à la carte alternatives, and want to only pay for what they need. Let’s face it, business owners are in business because they have a talent and a passion for what they do, but that doesn’t necessarily translate into being an HR expert.
Demand for specialization is ever increasing. Using an experienced HR Consultant may be the smartest and most economical solution to meet your specialized business needs.
