For some small businesses, it is suitable to have a consultant at arm’s reach for general questions around human resource issues. However, as companies expand, a better solution is to outsource HR . This partnership goes beyond handling everyday human resource functions. It is a crucial element in constantly being aware of changes in labor laws and regulatory practices as well as guiding the strategy to implement these changes.
The need for outsourcing HR becomes more urgent as the capacity of employment laws changes and becomes more complex. Recent changes to The Fair Labor Standards Act, that updated overtime regulations and salary/compensation levels are will go into effect at the end of the year impacting millions of workers. Additionally, the Affordable Care Act, which is the most significant regulatory overhaul of the healthcare system in nearly 50 years affects every organization, especially those with at least 50 employees or more. Compliance with such laws requires an expertise that is more efficient to get from an outsourced HR company rather than attempting to create this expertise in-house.
Human resource functions are outsourced for the same reason that other functions such as information technology is outsourced. It allows employers to focus on the mission of the organization. For most organizations, the ability to stay on top of labor laws and regulatory changes and fully understand and implement them is a struggle. That is where CPEhr and ModernHR steps in.
