Responsibilities may include:

✔ Supporting employees with questions related to benefits enrollment and eligibility

✔ Maintaining records for 401(k) enrollment and contributions
✔ Ensuring employee files and HR systems remain compliant with company policies and regulations

This may include:

✔ Updating HR systems and employee files
✔ Reviewing recruiting activity and onboarding progress
✔ Preparing HR documentation and reports as needed

Organization and follow-through ensure the HR function continues to support employees effectively.
