Do I need to be in Detroit to work with AlzaHR?

No. We support Detroit and Michigan companies remotely, with in-person visits when they help. Most day-to-day work happens through your private client portal, email and scheduled calls.

Is this fractional HR or outsourced HR?

It's an HR partnership. Like fractional or outsourced HR, you get senior HR expertise without a full-time hire. The difference is that one experienced HR leader stays with you, learns your people and business, and keeps everything moving through a shared portal.

Do you know Michigan employment law?

Yes. We work with Michigan employers on the state and local rules above, and we keep policies, offer letters and handbooks current as those rules change. For legal opinions we coordinate with your employment counsel.

Michigan HR

What's different about HR in Detroit

Earned Sick Time Act

Michigan's Earned Sick Time Act requires paid sick time for employees, with accrual, carryover and notice rules that differ for small businesses.

Minimum wage changes

Michigan's minimum wage and tipped wage are on a multi-year schedule of increases, so hourly pay needs a regular review.

Civil rights coverage from the first employee

Michigan's Elliott-Larsen Civil Rights Act applies to employers of any size, so policies and training matter from day one.

Manufacturing and hourly teams

Scheduling, overtime and safety programs need structure that office-only HR templates don't cover.

A general overview, not legal advice. Rules change, and we keep your policies current as they do.
