Just when you think you have everything covered in your human resources area, something slips through the cracks. Did you complete your I-9s correctly? Have you posted your OSHA log in a timely manner? Did you report new hires correctly? Do you have your employees classified correctly with regards to over time? Important issues like these can be easily overlooked – costing you time and money, not to mention employee morale. Perhaps even penalty fees and fines.

At LAI, we take these worries off your plate so you can keep your attention focused on your core business. Our full offering of human resource services give you support and expertise reserved for most Fortune 500 companies.

Human Resource Services
Whether you have high turnover, can’t find the right candidates, or need help with compensation structure and plans, you can count on LAI for solutions you can use to hire, promote – and keep – great people. From improving the recruitment process to enhancing employee evaluations, we provide a full menu of HR services.

Payroll Administration
There’s a lot more to processing your payroll than preparing and distributing checks. Consider the labor and expertise involved in handling direct deposits, taxes for multiple jurisdictions, quarterly tax reports and returns, health benefits, withholding statements, pension plans, unemployment taxes and more.

With LAI, you get an experienced associate assigned to your business who is an expert in handling payroll and tax filings. We offer our clients access to our web based payroll service. This provides incredible flexibility and access 24/7. Our HRNet tracks training, certifications, performance appraisals and more. It is like having your own HRIS system on your intranet. Contact us for a demo of the system today!

You create one invoice for each pay period that covers all your employer-related expenses for that pay period. On a “pay as you go basis,” LAI helps you plan your employment costs in a predictable and cost-efficient manner. You save time and resources by outsourcing this labor intensive, non revenue-generating function to LAI.

Our services cover:
  • Web based access 24/7
  • Customized with your logo
  • Payroll preparation and distribution
  • All deductions and garnishments
  • Direct deposits
  • Payroll debit cards
  • Year-end W-2s and W-3s

  • State and federal withholding tax deposits
  • Tax reports for federal unemployment
  • Quarterly tax reports and returns
  • Customized payroll reporting
  • And more

Benefits Administration
Employee benefits programs are perhaps the most costly and most desired employee perks. They have become a highly competitive issue for hiring and retaining quality employees. It’s also a complex area to understand, keep up to date on, and administer.
LAI has the experience and expertise to select, design and administer medical and investment plans tailored to suit your unique business needs.
