Chamber Event: HR Basics Series - September 8 - October 13, 2025
the HR function in your business
This educational series is designed for the staff person who is responsible for the HR function in your business but isn't an HR professional. This staff person may have been assigned the HR function in addition to other duties because you're too small to employ a dedicated HR professional. It might even be you, small business owner who wears many hats. It's this scenario that is most vulnerable because if HR is just one cap you wear, you don't have the time or resources to master the Jack of all trades. You can't afford NOT to take the time, when it comes to HR, there are too many pitfalls.
