Employee Relations Counseling on Day‐to‐Day Issues
We help employers fully understand both the legal ramifications and practical strategies of hiring, evaluating, managing, compensating, motivating, developing, disciplining and discharging employees. We will guide your staff and leadership to make informed decisions based on best practices, to minimize your risks, and control costs.
HR Policy and Handbook Development and Communications
FineLine HR Consulting develops individual policies and procedures for our clients, as well as entire Employee Handbooks, aligned to your Company’s culture and in compliance with today’s ever-changing state and federal legal obligations. We can develop from start to finish, or we can review your current policies and procedures to ensure compliance with the most current requirements. We can also provide customized training on Company policies for both supervisor and employee levels to ensure your workforce understands its roles, responsibilities and expectations.
Employee Engagement
We will work with you to ensure that your policies and practices promote positive employee relations and full employee engagement, provide fair and consistent treatment of employees, create communication avenues between employees and the Company leadership, and avoid and appropriately address perceived discrimination, harassment, retaliation and other morale problems.
Job Analysis and Job Descriptions
We will analyze your jobs to identify the requirements needed for employees to be successful on the job using various methods including observation, interviewing, and questionnaires. We will then develop job descriptions, which serve a variety of HR functions including exempt/non-exempt classification; performance management; compensation plan design and establishing internal equity; determining qualifications and fitness for the job, ADA analysis and reasonable accommodation; examining and improving workflow, and meeting other important compliance obligations.
Performance Management
We will ensure that your Company’s performance management system effectively encourages desired performance and supports the Company’s overall goals and objectives. If you do not have a performance management system, we will help you develop one, including policy and process design, evaluation and goal setting tools and implementation assistance.
Compensation and Rewards
We can help you build nuanced programs that provide fair and consistent treatment of employees, and support, encourage, and reward high performance through both monetary and non-monetary reward and recognition programs. Our services can include market analysis of compensation and benefit programs; development and implementation of salary structures; administrative support for benefit programs and the creation of guidelines to support such.
HR Metrics
We can help you develop the right measures to evaluate and improve the results of your human resources programs and practices, ensure that they support the business, and that they are in alignment with your organization’s goals and objectives.
HR Audit and Efficacy Assessments
An effective Human Resources function must first be legally compliant and also align its goals and objectives with those of the organization. With that philosophy in mind, FineLine HR Consulting will systematically evaluate both the legal compliance and the efficacy of your current Human Resources structure, programs, policies and practices, make recommendations for improvements, and if requested, assist with action planning and implementation of any newly-identified programs, practices and/or policies. Typical areas to asses include:
• Strategic Planning
• Support of Organizational Culture
• HR Structure
• Performance Management
• Compensation
• Employee Engagement/Relations
• Communication
• Benefits
• Staffing, Recruitment, Selection, and Onboarding
• Education and Training
• Human Resources Metrics
• Legal Review
