If I had to hire someone to do all this for me, it would be costing me a fortune. There’s so much that can go wrong when it comes to payroll, there’s no good reason to try to do it yourself. I would tell anyone starting their own business that they absolutely have to hire ADP.

This is literally like a giant brick off my back every week. All I have to do is gather the hours and go in to RUN Powered by ADP®. I love how I can just throw a bonus in there, or if I told a guy I would reimburse him for gas, I’ve got a space for that. It keeps track of everything.

Yes, HR is important for any size organization, but the problem for many small businesses is that they lack dedicated resources. All too often, owners, managers and other employees take on HR responsibilities without the necessary training. This type of ad hoc management can lead to costly compliance violations, poor job performance and workplace safety issues. To help avoid such consequences and achieve peace of mind, employers can partner with or outsource HR to trusted experts, like ADP.
Small businesses outsource HR because it affords them the freedom to grow their business and get help with compliance risk and administrative burdens. Even if the organization already has an HR professional on staff, outsourcing can still be beneficial because that person will be able to focus more attention on long-term workforce goals and less on compliance research or clerical tasks. The key, however, is to find a provider, like ADP® Comprehensive Services or ADP TotalSource®, who has proven processes and technology in place and can tailor its approach to the specific needs of small businesses.
There are many requirements for small business HR, which if not met, could result in compliance violations and subsequent penalties or lawsuits. Some of these important necessities include, but are not limited to:
Whether it’s the owner, office manager or an HR professional, those who manage people in a small business often wear many hats. On any given day, they may have to:
