Courtyard Gardens Case Study
The Company
Courtyard Gardens offers senior living in a home-like setting where older adults can maintain a sense of dignity, purpose, and self-esteem. Courtyard Gardens pledges to serve with kindness, love, and professionalism while providing cost-effective quality care and demonstrating their commitment to all residents.
The Business Challenge
Like other senior living facilities, Courtyard Gardens found it difficult to handle HR-related issues in-house due to limited administrative staff. Wanting to control costs, improve efficiencies, and maintain compliance with HR regulations, the company decided to explore outsourcing its HR-related functions. Specific issues included:
•With more than 100 employees, they needed a better process for handling payroll, benefits, quarterly 941 reporting, W-2s, and I-9s.
•With limited HR staff, it wasn't easy to remain current on changing HR regulations.
•An increase in workers' compensation claims led to increased workers' comp rates. Improving their employee safety record while controlling rate increases became a priority.
The Solution
Courtyard Gardens selected FrankCrum as its outsourced partner for HR, benefits, and workers' compensation. Using a cross-functional team, FrankCrum provides the following:
FrankCrum’s onboarding process allows for paperless submission of employee forms through the self-service tool, MyFrankCrum.
Loss control and risk management specialists are available to establish safety programs in accordance with OSHA guidelines and to develop safety manuals.
The benefits team administers benefits and responds to questions.
The FrankCrum payroll coordinator sets up employer and employee tax deductions and payroll details for income tax, wage garnishments, SUTA, FUTA, unemployment tax, etc.
HR specialists are available to respond to problems and take proactive steps such as developing an employee handbook and drafting policies.
We’ve been working with FrankCrum for over a decade. We especially appreciate their guidance on risk management, HR law, and employee-related situations. It saves us a lot of time and resources.”
