Ever find yourself dreading those human resources responsibilities that come with running your business? You're not alone. Many small business owners view HR as a necessary evil – a department that exists to say "no" and create endless rules. Julie Wheeler of Clarity HR is on a mission to change that perception.
In this enlightening conversation, Julie shares how she accidentally fell into HR and discovered her passion for helping businesses succeed through better people management. With 23 years of experience and a background in employment law, she brings unique insights into why small businesses struggle with human resources and how fractional HR services can transform that relationship.
The concept is brilliantly simple: get professional HR expertise for the exact amount of time you need it. Whether that's two hours weekly or twenty, fractional HR provides small businesses with a resource that understands their unique culture and challenges without the overhead of a full-time position. Julie explains how this approach helps business owners stop procrastinating on difficult employee decisions – often the most costly mistake they make.
Perhaps most valuable is Julie's practical advice on employee handbooks (they're not written in stone!), having difficult conversations with team members (they actually want clear expectations), and avoiding the compliance pitfalls that trap so many businesses. With over 80% of employers unknowingly violating the Fair Labor Standards Act, having expert guidance can save you from substantial penalties.
