Hiring An HR Professional Is An Important Step For Startups.

While I agree with the reasoning, I question the timing of the suggested hire. Is that the best allocation of your resources? An experienced HR professional will require a salary of at least $50k in most of the United States. As a Startup, your resources are limited and focused on growth. Is that salary better allocated to marketing, sales or research and development? However, the idea is solid. Human Resources is essential to the success of a company. The risk of mismanaging your personnel, making compliance errors, and potential lawsuits – they can sink your company before you have a chance to succeed.
Human Resources includes many components, and some essentials may be neglected in a Startup. Are your benefit plan offerings up to par; are you offering a complete package to attract the best talent? Are you filing payroll taxes correctly? Who handles your workers’ compensation; what happens if an employee is injured? Are your personnel forms and notices compliant?
There are many roles that are important for the success of any business and essential to a Startup. Why hire 3 or 4 HR people when you can outsource and retain top talent at a fraction of the cost?
