Three tools you can use right now.

No call, no pitch, nothing to schedule. Use them, keep what is useful, and get in touch only if you want to.

These three are built for manufacturing, construction, and trades shops in Western New York, so the examples and job titles are written for that world. If you run a different kind of business, most of the compliance material still applies.

After you get your score

The compliance check is the fastest way to find out whether you have a problem. It is not the whole picture.

Ten questions and three minutes will tell you where you stand on New York compliance. That is real, and for a lot of owners it is the first honest look they have had. But compliance is one of four things that decide whether your hiring holds up, and a score on a screen cannot rank what to fix first for your specific business.

The Bulletproof Business Snapshot is what comes after. Twelve points instead of ten questions, covering your documentation, your hiring process, your risk exposure, and what happens to a new hire in their first 90 days. Jamie goes through it personally and sends back a ranked list of what to deal with first.

Rather just ask someone?

Book 30 minutes. Tell me what is going on in your shop and I will tell you straight what I would do about it, including if the answer is nothing yet.
