Since my goal is to help small business owners with their compliance and employment issues, I thought that examining one of the most prevalent law violations would be helpful. This violation cost businesses in the Lowcountry over $3 million in fines last year.
Human Resources Audit
Do you know if you are compliant with employment law or if your HR practices are even legal? Too often, a business selects an administrator or accountant to manage the Human Resources process because that person is good with people or numbers. Unfortunately, they don’t understand the intricacies of HR and the laws that guide […]
Managing The Paperwork
One of the first things you’ll want to get a handle on in your business is the amount of paperwork that piles up when it comes to managing Human Resources.

However, they don’t step back and enjoy the beauty and totality of the forest and its purpose on the planet, […]
Attracting Millennials to Your Business
