As human resource management becomes more and more demanding, you may find yourself both short on time and staff. Managing policies and procedures, contracts, performance management, labor relations, training and development, recruitment and retention, strategic planning, records and payroll, presentation and orientation programs could leave you asking yourself, “What comes first?”

What would you say to an additional resource that will help you work smarter, more efficiently and effectively? HRinsider is an easy-to-navigate online tool that keeps you “in the know” on benefit issues so you can make informed decisions.

HRinsider contains the following useful features:

	Legislative Guides – Here you’ll find up-to-date information on COBRA, Section 125, FMLA, HIPAA and USERRA. Also contains FAQs, related forms and instructions and legislative updates.
	What’s New Box – Updates your current information when resources and forms change

Statistics show that most employees don’t know the basics of their benefits until they need them. We are here to provide you with a customized Employee Benefits Center (EBC), which serves as an online employee benefits handbook. This EBC will greatly increase the effectiveness of your benefits communication to employees. As a result, it will enhance an employee’s understanding and appreciation of his benefit package. It’s designed to give employees the freedom to take control when it comes to benefits, health and lifestyle decisions. The EBC also updates benefits changes as they occur to eliminate the hassles that come along with outdated information or forms.
