With Minnesota’s new break law and paid leave requirements taking effect on January 1, many business leaders like yourself are navigating increased compliance demands – from mandatory meal/rest breaks to updated wage notices and potential penalties for non-compliance.
At Synergy HR, we specialize in helping Midwest businesses and professional organizations (like law firms, CPA firms, and associations) manage these exact challenges without the burden of building an in-house HR team.
As a full-service HR consulting firm, we combine decades of corporate HR experience with unique employment law expertise (backed by our managing partner, a seasoned attorney with over 35 years in labor law). Our clients rely on us for:
- Ongoing support via our affordable HR Care Plan subscription: Unlimited access to our HR Advice Line, annual HR Checkups, compliance resources, and discounted project rates.
- Risk mitigation: Proactive guidance on employee relations, policy updates, and regulatory changes to minimize liability.
- Custom solutions: Outsourced HR, project work (e.g., handbook rewrites), or multi-client support tailored to your needs – no long-term commitments required.
We’ve helped companies just like yours stay ahead of evolving laws, reduce exposure to lawsuits, and focus on growth instead of HR headaches.
