HR Consulting Services

  

HR Risk Reset™


The Problem

Most organizations don’t know where their real HR risk lives, which issues matter versus distractions, or what to fix now versus later. Generic audits overwhelm leadership, and free advice misses true exposure.

  

The Solution

The HR Risk Reset™ is a focused, executive-level HR risk assessment designed to identify the most critical HR exposures and provide leadership with a prioritized 90-day roadmap to reduce risk.

  

What We Review

- Employee classification & FLSA risk indicators
- Exempt vs non-exempt exposure
- Independent contractor usage (if applicable)
- Core policy gaps that create liability
- Manager practices that elevate risk
- Wage & hour red flags
- Documentation and termination practices


What You Receive

✔ Top 10 HR Risk Exposure List
✔ HR Risk Heat Map (Red / Yellow / Green)
✔ 90-Day Risk Reduction Roadmap
✔ Executive Briefing (60–90 minutes)


Timeline

Completed within 60 days from kickoff.


Investment

$3,500 – $5,000 (final pricing based on size and complexity)


 

Compensation & Pay Compression Review™

Understand Where Pay Is Creating Risk — and What to Do About It


The Problem

Compensation issues rarely show up as “pay problems.”

They show up as:

  • Hiring delays
  • Frustrated managers
  • Tenured employees feeling undervalued
  • Inconsistent pay decisions
  • Risk of internal inequity or legal exposure
     

Most organizations don’t know how far off market they actually are — or where pay decisions are quietly creating risk.


The Solution

The Compensation & Pay Compression Review™ is a targeted, executive-level analysis designed to identify where compensation practices are impacting hiring, retention, equity, and risk.  This is not a full compensation study.
This is clarity around what matters most right now.


What We Review

  • Market benchmarking for selected critical roles
  • Pay range alignment and internal positioning
  • Pay compression and inversion indicators
  • Hiring vs retention pay gaps
  • Pay equity risk indicators
  • Cost of inaction vs cost to correct
     

What You Receive

✔ Market Position Snapshot for key roles
✔ Compression & Inversion Analysis
✔ Pay Equity Risk Indicators
✔ Cost Impact Analysis (fix vs do nothing)
✔ Executive Summary with clear recommendations


Timeline

Completed within 45-60 days, depending on scope.


Investment

$4,000 – $7,500 (final pricing based on number of roles reviewed)

Please reach us at michael@thehrconsultant.org if you cannot find an answer to your question.

Free consultations are useful for introductions, but they rarely surface real risk or actionable insight.

Both the HR Risk Reset™ and Compensation & Pay Compression Review™ are structured, analytical assessments that require document review, benchmarking, and executive-level analysis. The investment ensures leadership receives clear, prioritized recommendations rather than general guidance.


 

Most clients find the investment significantly less than the cost of:

  • One compliance issue
  • One misclassification error
  • One pay equity complaint
  • One key employee leaving due to compensation confusion

The goal is not to “spend more on HR,” but to avoid spending money in the wrong places.


 

Pricing is based on organizational complexity, including:

  • Employee count
  • Number of locations or states
  • Number of roles reviewed
  • Use of independent contractors

A brief intake conversation allows us to confirm scope and provide a fixed price before work begins—no surprises.


 

No.

All deliverables outlined in the scope are included in the agreed-upon price.
Any additional work (such as implementation or expanded analysis) is discussed and quoted separately, in advance.


 

Full audits and studies have their place—but they are often expensive, time-consuming, and more than leadership needs at the moment.

These assessments are intentionally focused and pragmatic, giving leadership clarity first. Larger engagements can follow if and when they make sense.
