HR COMPLIANCE AUDIT
PMP’s HR compliance audit is a structured and systematic process that examines those legal and practical issues which are relevant to your workplace. This proactive tool focuses on your company’s possible exposure to costly claims and litigation. Our HR consultants will analyze your policies and practices for compliance with state and federal labor and employment laws and regulations and help structure best practices for your company. An HR compliance audit identifies and addresses potential liabilities, such as those that arise from allegations of discrimination in the workplace, to help build a solid foundation for the future.
ON-SITE HUMAN RESOURCES
With PMP’s on-site HR service, your company has an experienced HR Consultant on its team. While onsite, our HR professional works with management to develop and implement your human resources programs and to manage your regulatory compliance, policies, procedures, recruitment, employee training and employee performance. PMP offers several options including an interim, project, or ongoing commitment.
HR POLICIES & PROCEDURES
It is critical for employers to develop and to institute a comprehensive set of HR policies and procedures that guide the conduct of employees and supervisors. PMP's HR consultant works with management to create policies and procedures to ensure that employee situations are dealt with in a consistent manner and that the employer's business runs efficiently.

PMP uses its considerable expertise to assist companies in proper Form I-9 completion and document review in order to reduce possible liability during an ICE I-9 audit.
JOB DESCRIPTIONS
Job descriptions are an important tool for every company. An HR consultant will create or edit comprehensive, well-defined job descriptions that establishes employment classifications compliant with the FLSA, including the essential functions of the job and in compliance with ADA requirements. An effective job description can also assist employers with recruiting efforts.
FMLA ADMINISTRATION & NY PAID FAMILY LEAVE ADMINISTRATION
PMP provides leave administration to ensure efficient and compliant tracking. Our clients enjoy the peace of mind knowing that their employees’ FMLA and NYPFL time is tracked efficiently and correctly – all for a nominal per employee fee. By outsourcing this time-consuming task, your HR department can focus on more value-added responsibilities, making our FMLA and NYPFL tracking cost effective.
WORKPLACE INVESTIGATIONS
Accusations of harassment or discrimination in the workplace require meaningful responses. Such complaints lead to workplace tensions, government investigations, hefty fines, and costly legal battles. As an impartial, experienced third party, PMP can conduct comprehensive investigations regarding these allegations. Our HR Consultants file a report that will assist you in determining the course to take for your employees and for your business.
PERFORMANCE MANAGEMENT
Feedback to employees is critical to their understanding of how their performance is viewed by management. PMP will work with you to develop a customized performance appraisal process that meets the needs of your business. This can include evaluating and assessing the current performance of your staff, creating individual goals and objectives, developing plans to improve performance, and training management to set and communicate performance standards with appropriate and timely feedback.
DISCIPLINARY ACTION & TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT
At PMP, our staff has extensive experience in advising employers regarding disciplinary action and termination of employment to help minimize the risk of potential legal action. This can include investigating and advising clients regarding termination decisions and other disciplinary actions, and training supervisors on termination procedures and on how to conduct exit interviews. Proper documentation is your best protection at unemployment hearings and as a defense against charges by oversight agencies.
EMPLOYER/EMPLOYEE RELATIONS SOLUTIONS
A company’s employee relations may be the most important factor in motivation, morale, and overall productivity. It impacts what you get out of your employees and improve your bottom line. The HR Consultants at PMP ensure clear and concise communications and policies within your business that promote positive employee perception and a unified approach to goals throughout your organization.
"While I would like to give full credit to our HR staff, it really was the outstanding support and guidance from PMP that got us through this process without so much as a question from the auditors. PMP walked us through all the elements of the plan to ensure we had things as clean as possible. Maureen was knowledgeable, creative and readily available and very good at educating on the finer points of the audit process. We could not have passed this audit without you!"
