Most HR compliance problems do not show up as headlines. They show up as a Department of Labor letter, a wage-and-hour lawsuit, or a former employee claiming you misclassified them. By the time you find out something is wrong, you are already in damage-control mode.
Compliance is not complicated, but it is detail-heavy, state-by-state, and constantly changing. Federal rules. State rules. City rules. Multi-state companies deal with all of them at once.
We do compliance reviews that catch the things you did not know to look for. Worker classification (employee vs contractor). Wage and hour rules. Pay transparency requirements. Family and medical leave compliance. I-9 paperwork. Discrimination and harassment policies. Required postings. Recordkeeping.
You get a clear report telling you what is working, what is not, and exactly what to fix — in plain language, prioritized by risk. For multi-state companies, we offer ongoing compliance monitoring so you stay current as laws change.

- Full compliance audit report with clear risk levels
- Specific recommendations prioritized by urgency
- Updated policies and procedures where needed
- Worker classification review and analysis
- Multi-state compliance matrix (if you operate across states)
- 90-day fix plan with clear owners and deadlines
- Optional ongoing compliance monitoring
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if I need a compliance audit?
Three good triggers: you have recently expanded into new states, you are approaching 50 employees (which adds federal rules), or it has been more than two years since your last review. If any of those apply, it is worth a conversation.
Are you a law firm?
No. We are senior HR practitioners who specialize in compliance. For legal-specific questions, we coordinate with your employment attorney. Most "legal" issues are really HR practice issues that have not been fixed yet — that is what we handle.
What happens after the audit?
You get a clear written report showing where you stand, what to fix, and how. We can also implement the fixes for you — updated policies, new processes, training. Many clients also stay on for quarterly check-ins.
We are a remote-first company. Does state law matter for us?
More than ever. With remote teams, you have employees living in multiple states — and each state means new rules. We help you map your employee locations to the requirements that apply, so you know exactly what is in scope.
