Hourly HR Advising is for those moments when you need quick, experienced guidance without an ongoing commitment.

This option gives you access to real-world HR expertise to help you think through employee issues, compliance questions, or tough conversations before taking action. It’s practical, judgment-free support designed for small businesses.

Ideal for:

• One-off HR questions

• Employee relations or performance concerns

• Compliance or classification questions

• Manager coaching for difficult conversations

• A second opinion before making people decisions

Support is provided on an hourly basis, scheduled as needed. You’ll walk away with clear direction, practical next steps, and confidence in how to move forward. Can be purchased in block of hours.

If you’re not sure where your HR stands, or you know things are a little messy but don’t know where to start, the Comprehensive HR Assessment gives you clarity, structure and a plan.

This is a deep-dive review of your current HR practices, policies, and people processes. I look at what’s working, what’s missing, and where there may be risk and then translate it into clear, practical recommendations you can actually act on.

This assessment is ideal for businesses that:

• Have grown quickly without formal HR systems

• Are unsure if they’re compliant with state or federal requirements

• Are experiencing employee issues or turnover

• Are preparing for growth, leadership changes, or audits

• Want a clear HR roadmap without committing to ongoing support (yet)

What’s Included

The Comprehensive HR Assessment typically reviews:

• HR foundations and compliance (state and federal)

• Hiring, onboarding, and classification practices

• Pay practices, hours, and recordkeeping

• Policies, handbooks, and required notices

• Employee relations and performance practices

• Manager and leadership processes

What You’ll Receive

At the end of the assessment, you’ll receive:

• A clear summary of current-state HR practices

• Identified gaps and potential risk areas

• Prioritized, plain-English recommendations

• A practical action plan with suggested next steps

Running a business is hard enough. HR shouldn’t feel overwhelming or reactive. TidalHR’s Fractional HR Support gives you an experienced HR partner without the cost or commitment of a full-time hire.

Think of this as “HR on call,” plus strategy. I work alongside business owners and leaders to handle day-to-day people issues, keep you compliant, and build systems that actually work for your team and your culture.

This is ideal for small to mid-sized businesses that:

• Don’t have in-house HR

• Have HR tasks falling on an owner or manager’s plate

• Are growing and need structure, clarity, and guidance

• Want proactive support; not just help when something goes wrong

What Fractional HR Support Includes

Fractional support is customized, but commonly covers:

• Day-to-day HR guidance and manager support

• Employee relations and performance issues

• Policies, handbooks, and compliance support

• Hiring, onboarding, and employee lifecycle support

• Difficult conversations and documentation guidance

• Ongoing HR planning as your business grows

You get consistent support, a trusted advisor, and someone who understands your business without starting from scratch every time an issue pops up.
