New TriNet Services Help Small Businesses Accelerate Growth in a Recovering Economy
TriNet’s Summer 2009 Release helps companies maximize human capital while minimizing employer risk.
SAN LEANDRO, Calif. (August 3, 2009) – Small businesses realize that in order to succeed in this economy they must pay strict attention to hiring decisions, talent development, and workforce reductions. Now more than ever, every hire must be made strategically, every employee’s development and productivity must be maximized, and a positive working culture must be maintained.
To help small business leaders meet these objectives, TriNet, a leading provider of human resources outsourcing services to small businesses, today announced the launch of seven premier products and services designed to help small businesses hire and retain the best talent available, maximize existing employee talent and growth, and maintain an ethical and legally compliant workplace environment.
“Small companies face a daunting combination of regulations, administrative headaches and rising costs as they try to run a successful and profitable business in today’s economic climate,” said Burton M. Goldfield, President and CEO of TriNet. “The TriNet Summer 2009 release of products and services will help these organizations prepare themselves for success and growth while minimizing their exposure to risk. It will also help fortify and protect their organizations in the face of an uncertain business climate in 2010.”
- Talent Acquisition– Professional Recruiting
According to a recent global survey by PricewaterhouseCoopers, more than 70 percent of CEOs said access to and retention of key talent is critical to maintaining a competitive advantage and sustaining their growth over the long term. Talent Acquisition provides companies with a powerful and cost-effective service to help organizations identify and hire the best talent in a saturated market. Even more importantly, it helps companies cope with a flood of available candidates by using both passive and active hiring methods to find the right people.
- Employee Development – Online Learning and Training
Today’s challenging business environment has drawn many organizations’ attention away from employee development and professional training. With leaner operations, many organizations are asking their employees to take on more responsibilities with little preparation or financial reward. Employee Development offers a valuable solution for small businesses looking to combat this problem and invest in their valuable human capital assets with a robust employee development platform and broad library of professional training materials. Included in the offer are thousands of e-learning courses from leading providers of professional training, an industry-specialized resource library, and expert TriNet consultants to help develop curriculums and assist with employee development plans. With this service, organizations can demonstrate to employees that they value their contribution and professional development while simultaneously empowering them to be more productive and successful.
- Human Capital Audit –Employer Risk Mitigation
Multiple employer laws and regulations threaten to expose small businesses to fines and potential lawsuits if not adhered to properly. To help employers minimize their employer-related risks, TriNet’s Human Capital Audit assesses an organization’s compliance with employer laws and workplace regulations, as well as the effectiveness of their HR policies and procedures. Organizations can immediately prioritize actions to address compliance issues or improve HR processes. The audit process begins within days of a company becoming a TriNet client.
- Career Transitions – Former Employee Placement Assistance
Many businesses are forced to implement workforce reductions in today’s challenging economic climate. Career Transitions helps former employees move on to new jobs quickly after a workforce reduction. Aside from providing valuable guidance to the attendees, the instructor-led training shows remaining employees that the organization cares about their well being and improves their reputation as an employer of choice.
“Small businesses leaders have learned that the best strategy to navigate a turbulent economy is to devote their finite resources to what they do best and outsource the rest,” continued Goldfield. “These products give them a customized HR solution that will boost their productivity and profitability.”
“As a client of TriNet’s, we are constantly impressed with the scope of HR technology and services that TriNet provides our organization,” said Francis Chow, CFO of Chronicity. “The innovative services delivered with the Summer 2009 release will improve our ability to attract, retain and manage the performance of our most talented employees, and allow Chronicity to concentrate on its core competency – which is providing excellence in patient-focused care.”
As part of the Summer 2009 release of products and services, TriNet is also launching a Corporate Ethics Program, TriNet Time and Attendance and a new design of their customer portal, HR Passport.
