What You Have at Risk

Human resource issues present challenging obstacles to

productivity and profitability.

You simply don’t have time to become well versed on the massive and ever-changing law and best employment practices.

 

Loss of profit, employee morale, legal liability and ultimately the demise of a business can result from a well-intentioned attempt to take on too many functions.

 

There is not only a tight job market, but also a tumultuous and volatile workforce;  you need to work in tandem with a qualified human resources professional.

"Charles Goldstein drafted my office's first Employee Handbook. He carefully and thoroughly informed me about the applicable provisions, explored our office dynamics, present and potential employee issues and my mission and vision statements. I am so appreciative that Charlie encouraged me to finally implement an Employee Handbook- a task I had procrastinated way too long! I recommend him wholeheartedly."
