Small businesses need some form of HR. Even if you don't have a dedicated team, someone at your company needs to process payroll, find and onboard new employees, and manage your staff. The standard ratio of HR staff to employees is 1.4 HR professionals for every 100 employees you have.
HR software can simplify all your core HR processes to help your small team work more efficiently. Also, many HR software solutions include guidance around compliance and employment law, which is challenging if you aren’t an expert. The key for small businesses is finding a solution with the features you need, without having to pay for unnecessary extras.
