"Your business and the law" for January workshops
January's theme for our weekly workshops is about setting up a good legal foundation for your business, protecting assets and continuity, and fending off threats.
January 29, Legal requirements when people work for you: Hiring contractors or employees can be scary; it's hard to keep track of all the state and federal regulations. And what do you need to know to be a good boss? An Xpat from way back, Paula Willems from Sound HR Services has over thirty years of experience in both Human Resources and managing people and loves to help great businesses be great employers. Check out her website and see the story of how she helped Paper Products.
