There are many reasons why the role of HR in a company is important
to its survival and success. If you
have employees, you have to manage Human Resources administrative tasks such
as keeping up-to-date with staffing, technology and training. You also have to stay in compliance with
federal and state employment laws such as FLSA, FMLA, EEOC, I-9 regulations
and more. This can all be very
intimidating and overwhelming, but we have a SOLUTION for you. You
deserve a partner that can let you get back to the basics of running your
business and focus on growing it every day.

U.S. Department of Labor has developed six criteria that an
employer must apply to determine whether an internship legally qualifies to
work without compensation.
If an internship qualifies as a paid position, interns
legally must be paid the federal minimum wage (at the very least) for the
services they provide within the "for-profit" or private sector. They must
also be paid overtime. Both regulations fall under the Fair Labor Standards
Act (FLSA).
