Onboarding, consistent

Every new hire onboarded the same way, regardless of which manager owns them.

No more manager-by-manager improvisation. We build the onboarding workflow once, paperwork, handbook receipt, benefits enrollment, first-week check-ins, and run it identically for every hire in every department.

Handbooks, maintained

A handbook that stays current, not one you rewrite the week before an audit.

State rules change, roles evolve, policies drift. We keep the handbook aligned with the current rules and the way the team actually works, so the document means something when HR needs to lean on it.

How the engagement works

01

HR Audit

We assess your current HR operations, identify gaps in documentation and process, and establish a baseline for improvement.

02

Build the Foundation

We create the systems, checklists, and documentation that make consistent HR operations possible, onboarding workflows, file structures, and SOPs.

03

Execute Daily Operations

We take over day-to-day HR administration: processing changes, managing documents, handling employee inquiries, and keeping everything current.

04

Continuous Improvement

Monthly reporting on HR metrics, process refinements based on real-world feedback, and proactive recommendations as your team grows.

Why this matters

A manager’s job isn’t HR admin.

In most SMBs, managers absorb onboarding, handbook questions, and policy interpretation because nobody else owns it. We take it off their plate so they can manage.

Operator vs. DIY

DIY / manager-owned HR

  • Onboarding varies wildly by manager
  • Handbook references policies nobody updated
  • Documents live in manager email folders
  • Policy answers depend on who you ask

King & Co.

  • Onboarding consistent across managers and locations
  • Handbook kept current with MA-specific rules
  • Documents and e-sign workflow owned by one operator
  • Policy questions answered consistently
