Regardless of the size of the company, effective handling of labor and employment matters is essential to maintaining smooth operations. During the past 25 years, the business community has witnessed a vast change in the legal landscape pertaining to employment relations. Governmental agencies and courts continuously create a dizzying array of statutes and rules to be followed. Moreover, employment litigation has become a high stakes game of Russian Roulette. Six- and seven-figure jury awards to former employees have become commonplace.

More than ever, employers need to have a single source of information when it comes to managing employee transactions such as hiring, assignment, promotion, termination, and layoffs. Indeed, hardly a day goes by that there is not some news report about sexual harassment, wrongful termination, whistleblowers, drug testing, affirmative action, employee privacy, workplace violence, workplace safety, or some claim of workplace discrimination on the basis of race, sex, national origin and the like. Moreover, we are just beginning to see the impact of laws such as the Americans With Disabilities Act and the Family Medical Leave Act.
