Instead of one-off projects or expensive retainers, Blackwell HR’s HR as a Service (HRaaS) offers proactive, ongoing HR support through an annual membership model. Members also receive discounted rates on custom HR projects, depending on their tier.
-
Nonprofits without a dedicated HR team — or those with limited HR capacity — benefit most. HRaaS provides practical guidance, templates, and compliance tools to help you confidently manage employees, policies, and regulations.
-
No problem! Blackwell HR can augment your existing HR team, providing strategic insights, specialized expertise, and extra capacity when you need it.
-
Examples include hiring best practices, handling performance issues, navigating multi-state compliance, or responding to employment law changes. HRaaS ensures your nonprofit stays compliant and well-prepared.
-
Membership covers guidance and standard templates. Custom HR design work (e.g., benefits planning, performance management redesign, payroll setup) and workplace investigations require separate contracts.
-
Members receive alerts and resources on federal, state, and local employment regulations — including policy updates, training requirements, wage changes, EEOC deadlines, and more — plus access to an annual compliance calendar.
