DAY 2 THE INCOMPAS SHOW
UNITEL Delivers Innovative HR Advisory Services
INCOMPAS continues its relationship with
UNITEL Insurance to offer innovative human
resources advisory services to member
companies at a discount.
UNITEL HR Solutions are available to assist
businesses with navigating the constantly
changing health care 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.
“Businesses of all sizes grapple with HR ques-
tions 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. “We look
forward to working with UNITEL to bring another,
more cost-effective, option to our members with
the availability of UNITEL HR Solutions.”
Several members of INCOMPAS have been
pleased with the service include Deb Ward, CEO
TSI and Chairwoman of INCOMPAS.
“UNITEL HR Solutions has been a valuable
resource for us. We have been very impressed
with the professionalism and expertise their certi-
fied 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 companies
continues to evolve and change especially with
all the complexities being thrown at companies
regarding the ACA, OSHA, compliance, and
other legal issues.
Many companies that UNITEL works with
don’t have the staff or the money to have a full-
time human resources person so they turn those
responsibilities over to an employee who is
wearing several hats within that company. Many
instances occur when a complex HR issue arises
and these people don’t know where to turn to get
the expert guidance they need.
While these companies may turn to web-based
HR portals for information, this kind of solution
can help only to a certain degree. It takes time
and effort to try and research the issue and many
times it is difficult to find the right answer to the
issue being addressed. Some companies will
have to make calls to their attorneys to have
questions answered and this can be very costly.
With UNTEL HR Solutions, companies can
save money and turn to a trusted HR resource
when they need one. Now instead of costly
calls to an attorney or incomplete answers from
the web, you can have direct access to certi-
fied SPHR/PHR consultants with UNITEL’s HR
Hotline. You can receive immediate guidance and
best practices advice to handle the toughest HR
solutions swiftly, and get 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 very useful
for new-hire orientation or even continued
education for employee 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 and FMLA, and thousands of invaluable
templates, forms, guides and online tools.
There are other benefits, such as bi-weekly
newsletters, state and federal compliance alerts,
HRCI approved webinars, 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 Solutions apart is our live phone access to PHR-
and SPHR-certified HR professionals, who can help
answer difficult questions that often arise. Our partner-
ship with ThinkHR allows us to deliver substantial price
saving to INCOMPAS members”
Many companies turn to UNITEL HR Solutions
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. Non-INCOMPAS members can also
subscribe to the service. o
