HR Acuity Announces New SaaS Solution to Address Rising Harassment and Workplace Risk in Smaller & Mid-Size Businesses

FLORHAM PARK, N.J., April 18, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- HR Acuity, the only technology platform designed to manage and reduce the workplace risk associated with employee incidents and investigations, today announced the launch of the HR Acuity Essential Edition, a new SaaS solution for smaller and mid-sized businesses struggling to address employee issues in today's post-#MeToo environment.

Challenges such as discrimination, harassment and retaliation are rising quickly across businesses of all sizes, with the EEOC reporting a 13.7% increase in sexual harassment charges made to the agency in 2018. The impact on smaller and mid-size businesses, however, can be devastating. They typically don't have the infrastructure, processes or resources to effectively manage employee incidents and investigations ? and even a single incident can jeopardize an organization, its team members and its reputation.

A turnkey SaaS technology solution, the HR Acuity Essential Edition empowers organizations with less than 1,000 employees with an easy way to manage, analyze and respond to employee issues and alleged misconduct in a strategic and timely manner. Clients benefit from consistent, fair process and reduced risk from features including:

• Employee issue and investigation documentation, tracking and reporting
• Best practice workplace interview protocols and templates
• Dashboards and forward-looking analytics to uncover behavioral patterns and trends

"Employee issues don't discriminate based on the size of your company," said Deb Muller, CEO and founder of HR Acuity. "Even large organizations aren't yet adequately dealing with the aftermath of workplace challenges like #MeToo. Employee processes are inconsistent, manual and not strategic. Issues are not well documented, tracked or reported. At smaller and mid-size organizations, the challenge is multiplied ? yet risks are too high for these organizations not to be proactive."

Muller continued, "We're extremely excited to launch the Essential Edition to meet the needs of all organizational sizes. HR Acuity's mission is to help organizations protect their brands and build better workplaces with purpose-built technology. Now that includes smaller businesses, too."

The Essential Edition starts at $7500/year for 5 users. For more details and to schedule a demo, please visit http://www.hracuity.com/essential.
