Another BIG year for employer benefit plan updates! But that being said with some expert guidance from masters in the space, like my friend Jeremy Higgins CEBS, GBA, CMS, GBDS at Higgins Agency Group, Inc., the steep premium hikes and other challenges can be easily navigated and completely mitigated.

I've sent many clients Jeremy's way, and the work he does with them is never short of impressive. Check out this latest episode of Unfiltered HR as you had into your renewal this year (it's right around the corner), to also benefit from his updates, tips, and reminders on what you need to do as a small business to not only be compliant, but competitive when it comes to your menu of offerings!

Haaaave ya heard? April 2024 was a banner month in the employer world- and not in a good way.

Employers nationally, and especially in NYS, now must plan to implement significant changes in order to comply with the new laws- many of which go into effect this summer.

What should your stance be as a business when it comes to participating in social or political discussions? Including how much you tolerate, encourage, or provide space for employees to engage on these issues at or through work?

Whatever. YOU. Want. It. To. Be.

Now read that back 100 more times.

The magic and uniqueness of what we do at Ally HR Partners, LLC is in how we empower our clients. In part this comes from arming you with knowledge about what you can and should do, to not only comply with employment laws, but thrive despite them. But more significantly, the value comes from being a credible, affirming, and even refreshing voice, reminding you that your business is your business, and you should not be shy from running it the way you need AND want. This means it's not going to be a place everyone and anyone wants to work- but of course! Because it's not a place you would (and should) want just anyone to work. Just those who align with what you are trying to accomplish and how you want to accomplish it. And you should not be afraid to define, create, and enforce standards around this. Including when it comes to the topic of social and political conversation engagement.

Brian Armstrong at Coinbase decided to set clear boundaries for his business back in 2020, a time when many social and political issues were burning brightly through the zeitgeist. Although controversial, it set a clear tone for his business, but led to constructive turnover that allowed the business to move forward in a more focused and efficient way- something you're certainly entitled to expect as a business. He even invited employees who were not aligned with the newly clarified values to have conversations about moving on. A seemingly audacious idea, but one that makes complete sense, despite what we've started to believe in the past few years. Like any relationship- why would either party stay in an employment situation where wants and needs don't match up?
