OUR SERVICES in Action

HR AUDITS

Our team did a comprehensive HR audit for an aviation company with over 100 employees in CA and FL. We reviewed the following areas; Recruiting and Hiring, Terminations, Employee Files, Employee Handbook, HR Forms, Compensation, Payroll, Training, and Organizational Structure. We defined areas of risk in an 81-page report and helped establish steps for compliance.

INVESTIGATIONS

Our employment attorney conducted an investigation for a manufacturing company with 50 employees in which a sexual harassment claim was made. We conducted interviews with 7 employees and provided a 14 page summary of findings which included investigation facts and a timeline of events.

HANDBOOKS

We recently created a handbook for a technology company with less than 50 employees located across 10 states. Our team documented company policies and ensured compliance with current federal and local laws by creating a handbook that spoke to the company culture and included addendums for states outside of CA.

TRAINING

We recently presented a CRASH Manager Training Series to a software company with 50 employees. Topics covered in this 5 course series included Leadership and Coaching, Resolving and Managing Conflicts, Avoiding Habits of Frequently Sued Managers, Giving and Receiving Feedback, and Performance Management.

RECRUITING

Using our RPO model, we hired a Purchasing & Planning Manager for a large biotech company with over 1,000 employees in under 40 hours, which resulted in a cost savings of $18,000 to the client (compared to if they used a staffing agency with contingency fees).

COMPENSATION

We completed a compensation project for a nonprofit organization with over 100 employees in which we reviewed and provided recommendations to their current salary structure. Our team ensured alignment between the organization's compensation philosophy and best practices to ensure a strong compensation foundation moving forward.

“Working with SDHRC has been incredibly powerful for us at ILS. SDHRC took the time to really understand our needs to thoughtfully help us navigate a corporate transformation. Their experience and sage advice made all the difference for our employees. I highly recommend SDHRC for all small/medium sized companies needing expert HR advice.”

Joshua Rosenberg

President and CEO at International Litigation Services
“SDHR is a great resource for my small business, and it has been wonderful working with the SDHRC team! They are always available to provide extremely valuable input and help us define the essential policies our startup needs. I appreciate their ability to return requests quickly and with great care and attention to detail. I will continue to use SDHR and their services for years to come!”

Kashmir Loveless

COO at Honest Medical
“Recruiting is the hardest thing I've done as a CEO but I'm super appreciative to work with a team that collaborates and communicates as well as this team has. We have placed 5 employees in the last 12 months and we are currently in the process of placing an additional 5. They have been a critical component in reducing the amount of research and vetting it takes to grow our team with quality employees.”
