Common Challenges We Resolve for Employers
Clear answers to the real-world operational and legal dilemmas faced by small and mid-sized business owners every day.
Q: Do you know what to do if an employee claims harassment by a supervisor?
Under Massachusetts and federal guidelines, failure to initiate a prompt, impartial investigation can make your company strictly liable. HR2fit deploys on-site immediately to conduct neutral interviews, document findings, and insulate your business.
Q: Are your independent contractors properly classified under MA strict 3-prong test?
Massachusetts has one of the strictest independent contractor laws in the nation. Misclassifying workers can trigger treble damages, back payroll taxes, and worker's compensation fines. We conduct a full classification review.
Q: Are your employee files compliant with strict state privacy rules?
Medical records, I-9 documents, and background check results must be segregated from general personnel files. We restructure your record-keeping systems to ensure 100% audit readiness.
