Fractional Human Resource Services: Your Questions Answered

Q : We’re not sure how much HR help we need—are we tied into a contract or a term?

A : One of the advantages of our Fractional HR service is we can meet your needs where they are today–and if that increases or decreases, we will too. Flexible, personalized engagement is the key to this service model, based on our decades of working with HR.

Q : Are there limits to the type of HR you can provide?

A : No, we have a deep bench that can handle all of your organization’s HR needs from onboarding, payroll, training, administration, recruitment, and beyond. We can provide HR On Call for your day-to-day questions; project-based services with fixed fees; and retained services to outsource some or all of your internal HR functions.

Q : How does pricing work for fractional HR services?

A : We design packages based on your organization’s needs and budget. You pay for the level of support that is right for your organization – no salaries, no benefit costs, no overhead.

Q : Can you work with our existing advisors?

A : Absolutely. We can integrate with your current team or provide complete coverage – whatever works best for your organization.
