Our Services

“As a boutique Pilates studio owner, my instructors have always been contractors rather than employees. When AB5 was being implemented in California, I was concerned and confused about how to proceed. Moving to an employee model seemed both expensive and complicated. Jennifer was instrumental in making the process so much easier that it would have otherwise been. She is skilled and knowledgeable about what California law requires and did a great job getting everything I needed lined up. She quickly and efficiently created an employee handbook for my business and conducted necessary trainings. She continues to be available for questions and functions as a crucial part of my business. Her services have been invaluable.”

“We knew about the upcoming law AB-5 that would change our responsibility as an employer to determine worker status between employees and independent contractors, but we didn’t understand the law or what that meant exactly for our small business. Thankfully Coastal HR Consulting was able to make the determination for us and transition all our contractors into employees, including setting up proper new hire paperwork (employment applications, I-9s, compensation structures), creating an employee handbook, ensuring we had proper workplace postings, setting up our worker’s comp, educating us on the CalSavers program and even helping with required training on sexual harassment. We feel good knowing we are not in risk of being fined up to $25,000 per contractor or owing any them backpay. We are happy to know that our employees are taken care of properly. Thank you Coastal HR Consulting.”
