HR Outsourcing

HR outsourcing can protect your company from costly employee issues that may arise.

If you are the owner or manager of a small to medium-sized business, you may wonder if you really need a HR department. That’s a fair question, and one we hear frequently. There are really two parts to that question. The first is, do you need a human resources department. That question has many answers. The second is, do you have human resources needs. That answer is a definitive “yes”.

Below is a list of reasons you may consider seeking help with all or part of your HR needs:
1. Increased time to focus on strategic issues. Need we say more?
2. Cost. HR outsourcing can reduce your human resources administration costs by as much as two-thirds.
3. Expertise. Here are some numbers to consider. Couple the fact that employment litigation has increased by 2000% since 1995 with the fact that the average litigation costs a company $75,000. There are currently over 40,000 pages of federal employment code. The peace of mind in having a knowledgeable resource is priceless.
4. Improved productivity. Having an outside company handle your HR function can help to eliminate the time wasted by having inefficient processes. If you need to hire someone, for example, a specialist can fill that position in a fraction of the time it takes for someone doing it whenever they have a few extra minutes to focus on it.
5. It works. UPS now outsources its hiring process, employment verifications, relocation services, and new hire compliance data. AT&T is nearing the end of a seven year deal that provided end to end human resources administration that has resulted in significant savings.
