Overview

HR Consulting for Selma employers

Most businesses do not need a full HR department. They need someone experienced to call before they act, and a record of the decision afterward. HR consulting is that: we look at what you are facing, tell you the options, name the risk in each, and recommend one.

Engagements run from a single question to a standing advisory relationship. We work with owners, general managers, controllers and office managers who have been handling people matters alongside their real job and want a second set of eyes on the hard ones.

We work with employers around downtown Second Street and Highland Avenue, out through the industrial area and the packing and drying operations spread across the surrounding grape country. Mostly family owned, mostly under a hundred people, all facing the same California requirements as anyone larger.

Why Selma

What drives this work here

These are the situations Selma employers actually call about. Each one is a reason hr consulting gets engaged rather than postponed.

A harvest window measured in weeks

Raisin harvest is the tightest labor window in the Valley. Crews arrive, work intensely and leave, and the intake paperwork for all of them has to be right the first time because there is no second pass.

Piece rate that does not add up

California piece rate rules require separate paid rest periods and specific wage statement detail. Most piece rate systems we review in Selma were designed before those rules and have never been revisited.

Family businesses with no HR at all

A large share of employers here are family run with no HR function whatsoever. Every employment decision sits with an owner who is also running the operation, and there is rarely anyone to check the call against.

What You Get

Local Conditions

What shapes HR risk in Selma

Generic policy fails here for specific reasons. These four conditions drive most of what we find when we audit a Fresno County employer for the first time.

Raisins
Dominant Crop

Selma is the center of the raisin industry, and the drying and packing calendar drives nearly all local seasonal employment.

Weeks
Harvest Window

The critical labor window is measured in weeks rather than months, leaving no room to correct paperwork after the fact.

Piece Rate
Common Pay Structure

Piece rate pay is widespread and carries specific California requirements for rest period compensation and wage statements.

Family Run
Ownership Pattern

Most employers are family owned with no dedicated HR, so decisions are made by owners without a second opinion available.

How It Works

Three steps, start to finish

The same sequence every time, run in Selma exactly as it is anywhere else.

01

Bring Us The Situation

A call or email describing what is happening. No intake form, no delay.

02

We Assess

We review the relevant records and policy, then name the options and the risk in each.

03

You Decide, We Document

You choose the path. We write it down so the decision is defensible later.

What Affects The Cost

What drives the price in Selma

Quoted after a scoping call, so you see the number before you commit. There is no travel surcharge for Selma.

Headcount & Locations

The number of employees, and whether you operate in more than one county, drives how much policy work is involved.

Scope Of The Engagement

A one-time audit is priced differently from ongoing advisory with a standing weekly commitment.

Open Matters

An active complaint, investigation or pending termination needs immediate attention and is scoped on its own.

We do not publish rates because a figure without a scope is meaningless. Call (559) 334-5546 and we will tell you what your situation costs.

Reviews

What Selma employers say

Our piece rate system was set up by my father and had never been reviewed against the current rules. They found three problems and fixed all of them before harvest.

Vince Kazarian
Owner, raisin packing
East Selma

We take on a lot of people in a very short time and the paperwork was always a scramble. Now there is one process and our leads run it without me standing over them.

Rosa Delgadillo
Operations Manager, grape packing
Selma Industrial Area

I am the owner, the HR department and the person who fixes the forklift. Having an HR advisor to call before I act has been worth every dollar.
