The Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970 guarantees employees the right to a safe working environment, and workers’ compensation insurance provides important cash and medical benefits to employees who are injured on duty. Worker’s compensation insurance is underwritten by insurance companies, and carrying a workers’ compensation insurance policy protects your business from out-of-pocket losses arising from workplace accidents. If you ever have any questions about how using our services can affect your workers’ compensation premium, our team at First Choice is here to help!

Every successful business needs a great team to run its daily operations, and finding and retaining great talent is always challenging. It’s important to offer a competitive salary and great benefits for your open positions, and you should create concise job listings that encourage highly qualified candidates to apply. But once the applications and resumes start coming in, you still have a lot of work to do. Resumes present an idealized picture of your candidate’s employment history, and a job interview is never enough time to get to know anyone. That’s where we come in!
Business owners and managers have a fiduciary duty to protect company assets, and it’s just as important for a small business as it is for a large corporation. A small company has to count on a core group of dedicated employees who are prepared to pull together, and every team member must wear many hats. That’s why it’s so important to hire drug-free employees. People who abuse illegal recreational drugs are statistically more likely to be involved in workplace accidents or steal, and they’re also likely to call in sick and be late for work more often. When you’re interested in running a drug-free workplace, our team at First Choice is here to help!
