UNITEL Delivers Innovative
HR Services with New Upgrades
INCOMPAS continues its relationship with
UNITEL Insurance to offer innovative human
resources (HR) advisory services to member
companies at a discount.
UNITEL HR Solutions is available to assist busi-
nesses with navigating the constantly changing
healthcare environment, including new Affordable
Care Act requirements, as well as hundreds of
complex employment law issues relating to hiring,
termination, discrimination, pay and classification,
time off/FMLA continuation, COBRA, employee
relations and employee safety.
Some of the new upgrades include a mobile
app, Compliance Calendar, enhanced online
training and more HR best practices information.
“Businesses of all sizes grapple with HR
questions daily and often find themselves faced
with costly attorney advisory fees or confused
by incomplete answers from colleagues or the
web,” said Chip Pickering, CEO of INCOMPAS,
in a press release.
“We look forward to working with UNITEL to
bring another, more cost-effective option to our
members with the availability of UNITEL HR
Solutions,” he added.
INCOMPAS members who have been using
UNITEL are pleased with the service, including
Deb Ward, CEO TSI and chairwoman of the
INCOMPAS Board of Directors.
“UNITEL HR Solutions has been a valuable
resource for us,” Ward said. “We have been very
impressed with the professionalism and exper-
tise their certified professionals have displayed.
This is an exceptional service that can help
companies stay compliant and save time and
money by having HR support available when
they need it. I highly recommend you check out
UNITEL HR Solutions.”
The human resources function in compa-
nies continues to evolve, especially with all
the complexities being thrown at companies
regarding the ACA, OSHA, compliance and other
legal issues.
UNITEL works with many companies that
simply don’t have the staff or the money to have
a full-time HR person, so they turn those respon-
sibilities over to an employee who must then
wear several hats within the company.
There are many instances when a complex
HR issue arises, and these individuals simply
don’t know where to turn to get the expert guid-
ance they need.
While some of these companies turn to web-
based HR portals for answers, the information
only helps to a certain degree. It takes time and
effort to research the issue, and many times it is
difficult to find the right answer to the issue you
are trying to address.
Some companies will have to make calls to their
attorneys, which can result in costly lawyer fees.
With UNTEL HR Solutions, companies can
save money and turn to a trusted HR resource
when they need one. Instead of costly attorney
calls or incomplete answers from the web,
you can have direct access to certified Senior
Professional in Human Resources (SPHR) or
Professional in Human Resources (PHR) consul-
tants with UNITEL’s HR Hotline. The SPHR or
PHR consultants offer immediate guidance and
best practices to handle the toughest HR ques-
tions swiftly, and get you right back to business.
In addition, UNITEL HR Solutions offers web-
based training for employees and managers
with more than 200 on-demand courses. These
courses cover six popular subject areas from
employment to safety. They can be useful for
new hire orientation or for employee education
throughout the year.
The other component is a comprehensive
online HR Library, which has step-by-step guides
for federal and state law compliance, COBRA,
FMLA, and thousands of invaluable templates,
forms, guides and online tools.
Other benefits include bi-weekly newsletters,
state and federal compliance alerts, Human
Resources Certification Institute-approved webi-
nars, whitepapers and other valuable resources.
“UNITEL is extremely excited to partner
with INCOMPAS and its member companies.
We fully understand the HR challenges that
INCOMPAS members face each day and
believe that UNITEL HR Solutions will be a
valuable resource to help them save money
while reducing their overall risk related to
managing people and safety within their
companies,” said Carl Zeutzius, director of
Sales and Marketing for UNITEL HR Solutions.
“There are many HR web portals on the
market today, but what sets UNITEL HR Solu-
tions apart is our live phone access to PHR-
and SPHR-certified HR professionals, who
can help answer difficult questions that often
arise,” he said. “Our partnership with ThinkHR
allows us to deliver substantial price saving to
INCOMPAS members.”
Why does it make sense to use a service like
UNITEL HR Solutions?
• It will save you money and lower your risk of
employment related lawsuits.
• It will allow you to focus on your strategy
and company so you aren’t spreading your-
self too thin.
• It will improve your compliance. It is more
and more risky these days to not be in
compliance with all the regulations a busi-
ness faces.
Many companies turn to UNITEL HR Solu-
tions because they realize they have a lack of
experience in-house. Knowing your weaknesses
is as important as knowing your strengths, so
handing off a task you know you can’t handle
properly to someone with expertise is a great
business decision.
INCOMPAS members receive a discount on
this service, which can start as low as $30 per
month. UNITEL also offers free 30-day trials.
Non-INCOMPAS members can also subscribe to
the service.
