What does Employers Resources Plus do?
We handle payroll, HR support, background screening, and Florida Drug-Free Workplace programs for small and mid-sized businesses, so owners can focus on running their company.
Who do you work with?
Mostly small businesses with 5 to 150 employees, especially trades and blue-collar companies, plus medical practices, restaurants, and professional offices.
Where are you located, and do you only work in Florida?
We’re based in Bradenton, Florida, and serve clients nationwide. Drug-Free Workplace programs are Florida-specific.
How long have you been in business?
ERPlus was founded in 2012.
Can you take over my payroll?
Yes. We can run payroll for you, or set you up to run it yourself online anytime. We also handle payroll taxes, time and attendance, time-off tracking, and online benefit enrollment.
I don’t have an HR person. Can you be my HR department?
Yes. We help with hiring, write-ups, terminations, handbooks, unemployment claims, and day-to-day questions. You can call us for advice whenever something comes up.
What is a Florida Drug-Free Workplace program, and will it save me money?
It’s a state-approved program of written policy, employee notice, and drug testing. Employers with a qualifying program can get up to a 5% credit on their workers’ comp premium, and it often means safer job sites. We set it up and manage it for you.
Do you do background checks?
Yes. We run pre-employment background screening so you can hire with confidence.
Do you need an employee handbook?
We strongly recommend one. A clear handbook sets expectations and helps protect you if a dispute comes up. We write and update handbooks in plain language.
Are you a law firm?
No. We give practical HR guidance, and when an issue needs legal advice, we refer you to an employment attorney.
