Need Human Resources Compliance Training?

Laws, and rules, and regs, oh my! From FMLA to ADA to EEO to about 100 other HR compliance requirements, the HR Department must know - and comply with - a boatload of HR laws, rules, and regulations.

What Is HR Compliance?

Generally speaking, HR compliance is an organization's human resources policies and procedures that help it comply with state and federal laws and regulations in order to avoid penalties, fees, or legal action.

Typically, HR compliance for most organizations means correctly administering COBRA, the Family Medical Leave Act (FMLA), the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA), OSHA, Equal Opportunity, Military leave, and Payroll-related laws...as well as anti-harassment, anti-discrimination, age and job discrimination, and other laws.

In addition to knowing these laws, correct HR compliance means organizations must have policies and procedures in place, and that there policies and procedures must be communicated to the organization's employees.

So...how do you keep up with your HR compliance requirements for FMLA, ADA, wage and hour, I-9s, payroll, OSHA, and more - at both the state and federal level - plus make sure you know about best HR compliance practices and processes for things like writing job descriptions and employee handbooks, COBRA, handling FMLA and ADA leaves, and the like – all things that often turn into lawsuits? You need a resource, and HRTrainingCenter.com should be it.
