Employees opting out of health insurance coverage can have significant implications for both them and their employers. Employers must consider these risks and take proactive steps to ensure employees have access to comprehensive and affordable healthcare benefits. This could include educating employees on the importance of health insurance, providing competitive benefits packages, and exploring alternative healthcare solutions to protect employee well-being.

Disruption in the PEO Market I wrote this article for BenefitsNews.com about how HR is tricking down market. More and more smaller companies are looking to uplevel their HR practices with a fungible HR model. These companies can't afford a full-time HR person but want a more progressive approach. As a result, they are using us to do this work. Also, we are helping companies realize that they don't need to pay a million dollars a year for a PEO to support them. With our innovative benefits strategies and HR support model, we have disrupted the PEO model. I hope you enjoy the article. #hr #fractionalhr #ai

🌟 Supporting HR Professionals: A Collaborative Approach 🌟 I recently came across a post from my job that resonated deeply with me: "If your company already has an HR team we would love to chat." This message reflects the core ethos of PEOs like ours: collaboration and support for HR professionals. PEOs are not here to replace or compete with HR teams; rather, we are here to complement and enhance their efforts. As a PEO consultant, I understand the vital role HR professionals play in organizations. Your expertise and dedication are invaluable assets that drive employee well-being and organizational success. Our goal is to collaborate with HR teams, not only to streamline processes but also to empower them with resources and support. PEOs bring a wealth of knowledge and tools to the table, from payroll management to compliance assistance, allowing HR professionals to focus on strategic initiatives and employee engagement. To all HR professionals out there, know that PEOs love working alongside you. We're here to make your lives easier, not to take over. Let's continue to collaborate and elevate each other's efforts for a more productive and fulfilling work environment. #PEO #HRCollaboration #SupportHRProfessionals #CollaborationOverCompetition #TeamWork #ElevateTogether

Take a look at how medical care is outpacing general inflation over the past four years by over 34%, according to healthsystemtracker.org. What does this mean? Higher insurance premiums for all of us. Ask me how working with a Employer Flexible can mitigate this for your company. #localPEO

This SHRM article brings to light the challenges employers are facing in California when running pre-employment background checks because of data restrictions. Accurate Background's own Katie Hartley also contributed to this article. 🙂 Recent legal changes in California, stemming from the 2021 All of Us or None — Riverside Chapter v. Hamrick ruling, have imposed significant challenges on the employment screening process.  This ruling, which applies statewide, has led to delays in background checks, particularly in high-volume jurisdictions like Los Angeles County. The restrictions have made it difficult for employers to process screenings quickly, with delays of weeks or even months for some candidates. In some cases, courts are limiting the number of searches that can be performed or requiring in-person searches, which has compounded the issue. Accurate Background has 𝒐𝒖𝒓 𝒐𝒘𝒏 𝒊𝒏-𝒉𝒐𝒖𝒔𝒆 𝒄𝒐𝒖𝒓𝒕 𝒓𝒖𝒏𝒏𝒆𝒓𝒔 in LA, Orange, Sacramento and San Bernadino counties to ensure we are retrieving and reporting records as quickly as possible. #SHRM #California #backgroundchecks #backgroundscreening #hiring #onboarding #hrtechnology https://lnkd.in/edN8b9QT

According to a recent report by Paycor, nearly half of HR professionals are new to their roles, having been in their positions for two years or less. This is significant because it points to a potential area that needs more support. With so many HR professionals still finding their footing, there's a clear need for ongoing training and development within our own ranks. The report also emphasizes that C-suite executives view HR as the primary driver of leadership development. However, they cite a 'lack of HR support' and 'outdated performance management systems' as key reasons for ineffective management. This underscores how critical our role is in shaping and supporting effective leaders within the organization. One of the standout points for me was the connection between effective management and employee engagement and retention. It’s clear we need to focus on supporting our own team members, investing in leadership development, and fostering a culture of open communication and trust. This is how we can drive meaningful engagement and retention across the board https://lnkd.in/gfDU_xnn How are you supporting your HR team in your organization? #hrcareer #hrprofessionals #hr

Curious about the new caps for officers/members for workers compensation in Colorado for 2025? 🧐 The state has updated its regulations, and it's crucial for businesses to stay informed. How do you think these changes will impact your business or workplace? The new Min/max caps for officers/members will be $76,500 per person up from the current amount of $73,900.
