The culture of our island state of Hawaii is very laid back. Folks here are easy going. There is also a great emphasis on the ‘aina’. Our land is our biggest asset and its value is still great. We need to protect our home and our businesses. In doing so many companies operate with the ‘Aloha Spirit’. Their goals are to be of service to the customer in a friendly and warm manner. Most businesses that succeed embrace this value while those that do not will not be around long.
Hawaii is also a ‘pro-employee’ state. This has been well known for decades. Our legislature annually change workers’ compensation laws and the usual result is more and more burden placed on the employer in cases of workers’ compensation claims. This costs you time and money when you go down that road.
So what are the major obstacles you face to operate a business in our state?
In Hawaii, not only do you need workers’ compensation but you also have a mandatory health care law where you have to provide basic medical insurance for your employees as well as temporary disability insurance. These are added costs to the bottom line and they can eat up your cash flow at times when you need it most.
What would it mean to you if I could show you how KilaKila Employer Services could improve your cash flow and ease your mandatory employee burdens? Would this be something you might be looking for, if so then read on.
KilaKila is in the business of making your business easier to operate. Your challenges of just making a profit are great enough without the added worry about insurances, injury claims, safety in the work place, payroll tax disbursement, state unemployment insurance filings or employee discipline. Remove the employer of handling these problems and a business owner can fully concentrate on increasing your business and your profit.
As a Professional Employer Organization (PEO), KilaKila operates as the co-employer of your employees.
Here is a simple way we can help:
Our system allows us to disburse all your payroll taxes for you. Your reporting’s and payment of state unemployment insurance are done as well.
Your workers’ compensation and temporary disability can now be paid on a ‘pay as you go’ basis. There is no further need for separate policies and large premiums which eat up your cash flow. With KilaKila you only pay as much as the total of your payroll.
Another cash flow rescue comes from your medical benefits. Our group medical polices are often more complete and at times less than what you are currently paying. Plus your monthly payment is now based on your payroll frequency. This keeps more cash in your hands at the beginning and end of the month which can be critical for a small business.
Our risk management department handles all workers’ compensation claims. We work to get your employee the help they need as well as getting them back to work as soon as possible. KilaKila will also provide you a written safety plan and make sure your worksite is OSHA compliant. The best news is this is part of our service. There is no extra cost involved.
Our Human resource department handles not only all the employee paperwork but we file the unemployment claims if needed. We advise on employee discipline, labor laws and can do mediation if necessary.
To conclude, you know the unique challenges you have been facing. If a change is in order and the fact you are on our website tells me that you are at least thinking about it, then when you are ready, we will be here for you.
