Frequently Asked Questions
What is On-Demand HR Support?
On-Demand HR Support gives hospitality businesses access to experienced HR professionals when they need help, without the cost or commitment of maintaining a full-time HR team. Our team provides practical guidance for employee relations, compliance questions, workplace issues, policies, investigations, and other HR needs as they arise.
What types of HR issues can you help with?
We can provide guidance across a wide range of HR needs, including employee relations, performance management, disciplinary actions, terminations, workplace investigations, employee complaints, compliance questions, I-9 documentation, leave and benefits questions, handbook and policy updates, payroll and HR systems questions.
Who is On-Demand HR Support designed for?
Our On-Demand HR Support is designed for hospitality businesses that need experienced HR expertise without adding full-time headcount. This can include restaurants and hospitality businesses without a dedicated HR team, growing businesses with a small HR team, or established HR departments that need additional capacity or specialized expertise.
When should I use On-Demand HR Support?
On-Demand HR Support is ideal when an HR question or issue comes up that you don't have the internal expertise or capacity to handle on your own. Whether you're dealing with an employee complaint, preparing for a termination, updating a policy, navigating a leave or accommodation, or simply need a second opinion, our team can help you determine the right next step.
How quickly can I get HR support?
We understand that HR issues don't always happen on a convenient schedule. Our On-Demand HR Support is designed to provide responsive, practical guidance when issues arise so you can make informed decisions and keep moving forward.
Is On-Demand HR Support only for businesses without an HR team?
No. On-Demand HR Support can be valuable for businesses at any stage of their HR journey. We work with businesses without an internal HR team, as well as small and established HR departments that need additional expertise, temporary capacity, or support navigating complex situations.
Do I have to sign a long-term contract?
No. On-Demand HR Support is designed to provide flexibility without the ongoing commitment of a traditional HR engagement. You can access our team when you need support rather than maintaining an ongoing HR function.
Can you help with a specific HR project?
Yes. In addition to answering questions and helping with immediate HR issues, our team can provide targeted support for projects such as employee handbook updates, HR audits, policy development, documentation, investigations, training initiatives, and other HR needs.
How is On-Demand HR Support different from outsourced HR?
On-Demand HR Support is designed for businesses that need HR expertise on an as-needed basis. Outsourced HR provides more comprehensive, ongoing support and functions as an extension of your internal team. If you're unsure which model is right for your business, we can help you determine the level of support that best fits your needs.
