A Better Way: HR Consulting from GTM Payroll Services<\/h3>\n
MAW President and CEO James Hathaway began outsourcing all HR functions to GTM, including creating offer letters and electronic employee documents, assisting with onboarding, updating the employee handbook, and advising on terminations.<\/span><\/p>\n
Outsourcing all or part of your HR functions to experts is an increasingly attractive and time-saving option as organizations, like MAW, try to manage the complexities of ever-changing legal compliance regulations, manage and retain talent, and implement HR best practices that align employees with business goals.<\/p>\n
GTM has been managing a broad range of responsibilities, including hiring paperwork, onboarding and offboarding assistance, electronic documents and notices for employees, and processing wage theft forms.<\/p>\n
MAW needed an employee handbook that was current and compliant with federal, state, and local laws, with separate sections covering the two states where their employees work. GTM also conducted a remote employment audit to ensure labor poster regulations and Form I-9 compliances were being met.<\/p>\n
Because of MAW\u2019s positive experience with GTM\u2019s HR services, they recently became a member of GTM\u2019s Professional Employer Organization (PEO). This now gives them access to HR support, payroll processing, employee benefits, compliance assistance, and more, all under one umbrella.<\/p>\n
With GTM Payroll & HR, organizations like MAW work with experienced, accomplished professionals who deliver expert solutions, including HR consulting and employee handbook services. By developing HR strategies that align with business goals by leveraging their experience, knowledge, and tools, GTM delivers value beyond expectations.<\/p>\nFree Consultation<\/strong><\/span><\/h5>\n
