We are pleased to announce the launch of FOREWORK, an independent employment technologies and HR solutions company.
Over the last several years, as I have worked with providers on their employment law compliance and – most challenging of all – wage and hour class actions and audits – I saw a need for competent outsourced HR services and compliant employment technologies. Forework was created as the one-stop end-to-end solution for businesses to handle all of their employment-related needs and provide competent HR support, so that businesses can stay in compliance and minimize their exposure to expensive employment litigation.
To meet business’s varying HR needs, Forework offers several different services and plans:
- The Employment Law Concierge Service – Subscribers to this service are paired with a dedicated HR expert, the “Employment Concierge,” who will work exclusively with their company to oversee all aspects of their HR. From updating employment policies, hiring for key positions, and writing job descriptions, to handling unemployment insurance claims, conducting workplace manager training, HR audits and overseeing employment compliance, the Concierge serves as the employer’s trusted HR partner.
- Policies, Forms, and Contracts – Forework’s website contains a library of 200+ attorney-approved employment policies, contracts, and forms that businesses may need to stay in compliance and protect their business in employment matters. From live-in policies, to wage parity procedures, and corporate compliance plans, home care providers can easily purchase necessary employment and procedural documents for their agency from Forework’s website.
- Forework OnDemand – Today’s fast-paced work environment requires fast answers and solutions. Forework’s OnDemand platform allows employers to book a call with an experienced HR consultant or attorney, right on Forework’s website. The employer will receive a call back the same day from Forework to assist the employer with their employment matter.
- OnSite HR Service – For businesses that need a temporary HR director or on-site support at their place of business, Forework’s OnSite HR service will assign an experienced human resources consultant to work at the client’s place of business and handle all personnel matters, including compliance.
- Work Law Subscription Service – With everchanging employment laws, the Work Law Subscription monitors the law for employers and alerts them of key legal changes impacting their business, issues updated policies and procedures to subscribing employers, and provides 1 hour of HR counseling each month.
- Employment Project Experts – For businesses that wish to outsource some HR functions, the Employment Project Service allows the business to hire a Forework HR expert on a project-basis. For example, clients can retain a Forework expert to oversee the full employee disability and leave process, from workers’ compensation to FMLA/PFL. The Forework expert would work directly with the employer’s employees who are requesting leave, monitor all leave, and report to management as needed.
- Payroll and Tax Processing **Coming Soon** – Custom designed to meet the current and future challenges of home care wage and hour laws, Forework’s payroll technology will provide employers peace of mind that their employees are being paid properly. Designed by a wage and hour attorney, Forework’s payroll technology was built by compliance.
