FAQ's

What makes California's employment laws differ from other states?

California companies face strict guidelines and constantly changing regulations that can be difficult for small to mid-sized businesses to navigate. If your business doesn't have sufficient in-house HR capabilities, it's often best to outsource to professionals who are familiar with California's employment laws and stay up-to-date on the latest regulatory changes.

What are some of the most common legal compliance issues I face as an employer?

Employers are required to maintain compliance with many federal, state, and local laws. Some common legal compliance issues could include noncompliance around various paycheck laws requiring specific items on each pay stub, minimum wage laws based on each state's requirements, minimum shift laws, paid sick leave, overtime laws, and laws regarding meal and break times.
