JAN BAKER FACILITATES

Facilitate means: “To make easier or less difficult; to assist the progress of” and that's what we do for our clients. We can create an employee handbook, help your employees become an effective team, or deliver specific training. Or perhaps we can help with hiring, potential harassment issues, or resolving employee conflict.

Since 1991, JAN BAKER FACILITATES has been making human resource management easier by identifying human resource issues in organizations and developing practical solutions. From our roots in team building and conflict resolution, we have grown into a full-service human resource consulting and training firm of positive, energetic professionals who offer practical expertise in every area of human resource management, including recruitment, hiring, training, employee relations, employment law, benefits, and compensation.

Why consult an HR advisor?

  • One-third of applications or resumes generally contain distortions, embellishments or falsehoods;
  • It is difficult to understand and comply with the myriad of federal and state labor laws, and small employers face increasing liability;
  • Common employment-related mistakes can cost an organization productivity, revenues, and profitability;
  • Millions of dollars are paid out in awards for legal claims annually;
  • Employees are an important resource; investment in the "people" part of your business is not only a risk management strategy, but is as critical to success as having the right equipment, materials, and processes.1

Organizations with just a handful of employees, sometimes find "managing people" to be a challenge and time intensive. Also, as organizations grow, supervisors often, with little training and no one to go to for guidance, become responsible for managing staff, there is increased exposure to liability for poor or illegal employment practices.

If you are…
Frustrated by the amount of time you spend handling employee issues,
Confused about making your way through the labor law maze,
Tired of hiring people who "shine" in interviews but don't deliver… we can help.
