In today’s internet connected world yesterday’s mistake is tomorrow’s front page news. More than ever, compliance is not a trend but must be a way of life in the hospitality industry. While many in the business community expected a relaxing of regulations under the new administration, the reality in the Department of Labor Wage and Hour Division has not reflected that. In 2017 alone, the DOL conducted thousands of workplace audits of hotels, restaurants, staffing companies and other hospitality partners. Notably, the DOL has made a habit of randomly selecting businesses in the hospitality sector to audit based upon nothing more than the industry-wide pattern of violations.
With nearly two decades since Xclusive Staffing opened its doors, we have been subject to over 100 audits and are pleased to have achieved over 99.99% compliance in paying our employees accurately. These audits have included Department of Labor audits, corporate audits initiated by our clients, accounting audits and even workman’s compensation audits. Our philosophy has always been to maintain open books that our clients can see at any time.
When choosing a staffing partner, its essential to choose a company that values its brand and reputation as much as you do. Compliance is not a trend – it is embedded into the processes, technology and very culture of Xclusive Staffing. On an organizational level, Xclusive employs a Chief Compliance Officer to oversee everything from I-9 compliance to complying with wage and hour regulations that vary in each locality and state. From co-employment to a $25,000,000 general liability policy and large investments in proprietary timekeeping software, compliance runs through everything we do.
As the recognized leader in hospitality staffing, our reputation is our biggest asset. We protect your brand like its ours – because that’s who we are.
