HR ASSIST

Human resources is a vital component of every business. The Small Business Administration estimates that small to mid-size business owners spend approximately 35-45 percent of their time handling HR tasks, which takes attention away from core business activities.

With "HR Assist", a HR specialist will be assigned to your company for a pre-determined number of hours. During that time, he/she will work with you by assisting with the projects/responsibilities determined in the initial HR assessment. Our focus is on your particular issues, and importantly, state & federal workforce compliance issues.

Unlike other Human Resource alternatives who essentially work alone, you are hiring an entire team in the form of one person. That's because our HR specialists have access to the resources of the Nevada Association of Employers professional staff. What "HR Assist" offers is a team to support the HR staff, not displace it. For over 60 years NAE has been the primary HR resource Nevada companies turn to.
