UST HR Workplace Gives Nonprofits Affordable HR Hotline and Compliance Platform

SANTA BARBARA, Calif., April 9, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- The Unemployment Services Trust (UST) is pleased to announce the addition of the UST HR Workplace powered by ThinkHR, a cloud-based HR platform that shields nonprofit organizations from costly risk and liability by offering reliable, on-demand HR help.

Featuring a live HR hotline from 8AM-7PM CST every business day, hundreds of online employee training courses, and features like ACA guidelines, a Job Description Builder and Employee Handbook template—the UST HR Workplace is like adding expert HR staff—in an affordable way. 

At just $95/month (or free with UST membership) the UST HR Workplace is meant to be affordable for nonprofit organizations of all sizes. Exclusively available to nonprofits through UST, this pricing for the platform is at about a 40% reduced cost compared to what a typical for-profit would pay.

"Our mission is simple:  To save money for nonprofit organizations in order to advance their missions," said Donna Groh, Executive Director for UST. "And since this HR hotline and employee training platform has been such an incredible asset to our current UST members, we are excited to extend this exclusive opportunity to all nonprofits to help them reduce HR liability in a time when human resources laws and compliance are getting more complicated."

The UST HR Workplace is giving nonprofit employers immediate access to resolve urgent workforce issues. Users can expect answers to their specific HR questions, with written follow-up, within an average of 24 hours or less.

In just over a year, UST's 2,000+ nonprofit employer members have asked ThinkHR's PHR® and SPHR® certified advisors more than 2,600 questions on a wide range of topics, including compensation, recruiting, employee benefits, terminations, compliance, and more.

And employees of those nonprofits have taken 3,342 training courses and completed 1,156 hours of training at no additional cost.

For a LIVE demo of the UST HR Workplace powered by ThinkHR—showcasing the HR Hotline, compliance Q&A, downloadable templates and 200+ online employee training courses—register for UST Presents: ThinkHR Workplace on April 15th at 10:00 PST/1:00 EST.
