August wrap-up: if you hired anyone this summer (or plan to this fall), take 10 minutes and run them through my free New Hire Checklist - it covers every federal and Ohio requirement plus the onboarding steps that keep new employees from quitting in month two.

Questions about anything on it? Comments and messages are always open.

Why HR consulting? Because I watched too many good small business owners lose sleep , and sometimes real money, over people problems they never saw coming.

You're experts at your business. I'm the expert at the employer part, so you don't have to be.

That's Sharp HR in one sentence. What's your business's one-sentence “why”? Share it below. I'd love to read them.

New hire's first day checklist, the short version: I-9 completed within 3 business days. W-4 and Ohio IT-4 collected. Reported to the Ohio New Hire Reporting Center within 20 days. Required posters up. Handbook signed.

That's the compliance floor. The full checklist (including the onboarding steps that make people actually stay) is free here: https://243430939.hs-sites-na2.com/en/new-hire-checklist

One of my favorite things about BNI: I always know a great local answer to “do you know anyone who…?”

Need a bookkeeper, an insurance agent, an attorney in Northeast Ohio?

Ask me — my chapter is full of people I trust with my own business.

Quick poll for the business owners: how do you handle HR today?
A) I do it myself and hope for the best
B) My office manager “inherited” it
C) I have outside help
D) What's HR? 😅

No wrong answers — but if you picked A, B, or D, my New Hire Checklist is a great free place to start: https://243430939.hs-sites-na2.com/en/new-hire-checklist

Your employee handbook is a legal document, whether you meant it to be or not.

Three things I check first in every handbook review: (1) an at-will disclaimer, (2) an up-to-date anti-harassment policy with a reporting path, (3) no promises you don't actually keep.

When did yours last get a professional review? If the answer is “never” or “what handbook?” — let's talk.

“I didn't realize how much I was winging it until Miranda rebuilt our onboarding.”

Hearing this from a client this week made my day. Small businesses don't need a big HR department - they need the right pieces in place.

If Sharp HR has helped your business, I'd be so grateful for a recommendation on this page. It's the #1 way other local owners find me.

HR myth: “I have fewer than 15 employees, so employment laws don't apply to me.”

Fact: Some federal laws kick in at 15 or 20 employees — but wage and hour rules, workers' comp, new hire reporting, and Ohio civil rights laws (which apply at just 4 employees) affect you much sooner than you'd think.

Follow this page for a small-business HR myth busted every month.

Local bakers, I have a bakery order and an invitation.

Every Friday at 7:30am I meet with a group of Northeast Ohio business owners in Brecksville. We need cookies for upcoming meetings and this could easily turn into recurring business.

This is a paid order plus an invite to visit with 30 business owners who order for client gifts and office parties.

Tag a bakery you love and I'll reach out. If you want to contact me directly, feel free: [email protected]
