VLCT PACIF is pleased to provide our members with access to HRSentry, an online tool designed to be a one-stop resource for your human resources questions.
All VLCT PACIF members automatically receive the HRSentry electronic newsletter and e-mail reminders. In addition, PACIF will pay the license fee for members that sign up to use the HR Getting Started Kit. This is an excellent HR primer for small- and medium-size municipalities with no HR professional on staff. The kit’s resources include required state and federal employment posters, a sample employee handbook, and information on how to interview and hire new employees in compliance with the law.
For full access to HRSentry's complete library, there is HR Made Simple. This has not only the HR Getting Started Kit but also access to federal and state laws, customizable HR forms, sample HR policies, desktop training programs, workers’ compensation management tools, HR audits, and proven best practices. Eighty percent of this one-year subscription is paid by PACIF; the member organization pays the remaining $100.
To sign up for either HR Getting Started or HR Made Simple, use the link below to print the sign-up form, then complete and return it as instructed on the form. Please contact Shawna O'Neill, Administrative Assistant, VLCT Risk Management Services, if you have any questions.
For a demonstration of HRSentry by telephone or in person, please contact your VLCT Loss Control or Member Relations Representative at info@vlct.org.
