required function.
You must:
• follow federal and state regulations
• keep up to date with employment laws
• attract & retain quality employees
• pay competitive salaries
• offer benefits (e.g., health insurance & 401K plans)
• train and incentivize staff
• file the proper forms
• process payroll
• and many other activities…

People are what make or break a business. You cannot run a
successful company without doing HR effectively.

Typical HR Practices
• Organizations generally cannot afford (or don't want) to build and
maintain large HR departments staffed with experts in every HR
discipline.
• Whether or not they have a dedicated HR manager in each
location, most firms don't have enough hours in the day to handle
all the management issues that they face.
• All too often, firms have a limited professionally trained,
knowledgeable and experienced HR staff. Therefore, they're also
utilizing department heads, supervisors, secretaries, office
managers or finance staff — people with regular full-time jobs —
who now have HR responsibilities piled on.
• Yet with literally hundreds of critical HR topics — and with the
field changing daily — even an HR pro simply cannot stay on top
of everything you need to know and do.
14

iWorkwell Features
• HR Navigator
— Best Practices
Rely on this large and growing library of instructional
articles for everything you need to know and do in HR.
Unlike the opinion pieces, narratives and hard-to-read
white papers elsewhere in magazines, newsletters or
the web, iWorkwell articles are succinct and to the
point; they're action oriented, include checklists, and
help you complete the task.
Think of HR Navigator as a comprehensive cookbook:
when you need to do X, you only need that recipe —
you don't read all of the other recipes from A to Z, and
you don't have to be a master chef.
The instructions are easy to digest, so that no matter
who you are, you'll keep up with changes in the field,
save time, and consistently follow best practices.
17
iWorkwell Features
• HR Flow Charts

Coming soon. View iWorkwell's proprietary process
maps — clear diagrams of best practice procedures for
all key HR processes. Each concise visual guide
includes detailed explanations of every step. Either use
the recommended models as-is, or download and
customize for your organization.
iWorkwell Features
• Regulations &
Forms
Get up-to-date legal information — all of the federal
and state forms, posters, notices, regulations and
instructions you require — about management, health
& safety, staffing/employment and tax & payroll. Many
forms are "smart" which can be completed electronically (and emailed to employees).
Save time and hassle searching your office or the
Internet for the right information. Stop paying $1,000
per year for quarterly subscriptions of cumbersome
booklets or CDs which may already be out of date by
the time they are printed, packaged, addressed,
shipped and arrive on your desk. On iWorkwell, you'll
have everything you need at your fingertips within
seconds.
19
iWorkwell Features
• Ask An Expert
Receive individualized advice — fast, when you need it:
submit a question, and an expert in that specific
HR topic area will get back to you.
• Training /
Development
Access the best* online courses money can buy, and
ensure that employees are trained following federal &
state regulations, such as Sarbanes-Oxley, which requires
that all U.S. organizations — not just publicly traded
companies — provide extensive compliance training.
Increase productivity, satisfaction and retention by
upgrading employees' skills with thousands of courses
covering major business and technical topics. As an
iWorkwell member, you'll save thousands of training
dollars per employee each year.
Hypothetical example: If you trained only 5 employees,
you'd save $10,000-15,000 per year. Translate that
to 100 employees … or 1,000.
* Again awarded "Best of
Elearning!"

iWorkwell Features
• Policy Wizard
Create the employee handbook you need to
communicate company policies to employees. Follow
this step-by-step guide which illustrates typical types
and terms of policies, then customize it to suit your
workforce, culture, size, industry and location. Instead
of paying lawyers by the hour to write or update your
handbook, you'll save $3,000-$10,000 or more in legal
fees.
• iSurvey
Want to know what your customers really think? How
about your suppliers... or your staff? Conduct surveys
for market research or collect feedback from various
stakeholders. Analyze this data — responses,
complaints, ideas — and make improvements: boost
employee morale and retention; improve product
quality and service; increase customer satisfaction;
spark product innovation.
21
iWorkwell Features
• Assessment
Tools
Coming soon. Gather quantifiable data about the
personalities, skills and abilities of current employees
and applicants. Learn who is wrong for the position,
who lacks the knowledge or understanding to do the
job, and who has the emotional traits to perform well
within your existing workplace culture.
Hundreds of vendors and thousands of tools are on the
market; which ones are valid, reliable, predictive, and
useful? iWorkwell has done the research and due
diligence, vetted them, and compiled a comprehensive
set of the best tools for the best price.
22
iWorkwell Features
• Jobs &
Salaries
Attract and retain employees at the appropriate pay
level. If you're paying too little, your good employees
will leave. If you're paying too much, you're wasting
limited resources which could be better used elsewhere.
Instead, get the facts to get it right: enter geographic
location and job title for the latest monthly
compensation data.
• Background
Check
Verify criminal, credit, driving, educational and
employment history. Easily and economically reduce
your risks associated with hiring mistakes (e.g.,
unqualified staff, violence, theft, harassment) and
make informed decisions using this service that's #1
in accuracy and client satisfaction.
23
iWorkwell Features
• Briefcase
Save your favorite or frequently-used articles, forms,
etc. in this organized storage space and work area.
• Personalized
Daily News
Think of this as your personal news-clipping service.
Search for your competitors and other topics of
interest; stay current in your field.
Choose up to 3 industries or occupations, and receive
an array of press releases and articles, updated daily,
from such leading publications as The Associated
Press, Bloomberg, CNN, Harvard Business Review, HR
Magazine, Human Resources Executive, The McKinsey
