The Never-Ending Regulation Mill

Anyone out there ever try keeping up with all the workplace regulations foisted on us business owners by the federal and state (and sometimes local) governments?

Try reading through the latest iteration of the Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) that came out Nov. 17, 2008.

You need a guidebook to wade your way through it, so why bother? Don't we have better things to do, like surviving in a challenging economy?

Fortunately, we don't have to spend hours and days pouring through these gov regs, as I call them.. There are a bunch of Web sites, blogs and newsletters that can help yus cope with complying with workplace regulations.

I have several such sites bookmarked on my browser, but I also rely on Personnel Concepts to keep me informed, which they do quarterly, and daily on their site. They do the research and then keep me up to date.

There are other providers out there that I've checked into, but Personnel Concepts seems to have been around longer and honed their skills better.

More on keeping up in future posts.
