Why we created the 1-Year Compliance Plan: Our Annual Subscription Plan for Labor Poster Compliance
Mar
As the most complete compliance product in the industry, the Poster Compliance Center’s 1-Year Compliance Plan is the Gold Standard for value and service. It includes everything a business needs in one simple poster plan, 1-Year Compliance Plan is a quantum leap in terms of what we can do for a customer—from helping you get your business into compliance with keeping you there year-round.
1-Year Compliance Plan was designed as a solution to a serious problem in the poster compliance industry. Back in 2003, we noticed that most of our customers shared a misconception about how compliance posters worked; namely, that new labor laws always take effect on January 1st of each year, when in fact they take effect at any time of year. If a business were to wait until January to update their posters, they would likely be out of compliance for parts of the year, and therefore subject to fines.
So we launched the 1-Year Compliance Plan plan to keep customers in compliance all year long.
The plan was and still is simple: Customers pay one low annual fee for the complete service, and they never have to worry about compliance again. That means every time a law has a mandatory change, we send you an updated poster with no additional fees— no charge for the poster, no charge for the packaging, no charge for the shipping. Poster Compliance Center ships the updated poster, and all you need to do is post it.
What could be better?
Our guarantee. Every 1-Year Compliance Plan subscription includes a $25,000 Poster Violation Warranty. In the unlikely event that you are caught out of compliance at any time during your subscription period, the Poster Compliance Center will cover the fines.
“The 1-Year Compliance Plan achieves all the values we had hoped for,” says Marketing & Systems Manager Nicki Williams. “Our customers don’t have to worry when a federal or state labor law changes—we send them everything they need automatically. It gives our clients peace of mind because we handle everything.”
After more than a decade, the 1-Year Compliance Plan has changed very little because it perfectly fulfills the needs of our customers. It’s more economical than purchasing one poster update at a time, it’s fully guaranteed, and it allows customers to forget about compliance responsibilities and focus on running their companies.
Now accounting for a large percent of our products, 1-Year Compliance Plan revolutionized not only our business model, but the way poster compliance services are offered across the industry. “We built a whole team around that product,” adds Nicki. “Our clients have responded very well to it, especially enterprise clients—those who have multiple locations around the country.
“Imagine you have an HR person in California, you have locations across the United States, and you don’t know what labor laws have changed in Iowa or Florida. So a lot of our enterprise clients love the 1-Year Compliance Plan plan because they know if they purchase it for their remote locations, they don’t have to track labor laws across multiple states. They can trust us to do that for them.”
With a 1-Year Compliance Plan, we have become more than a poster vendor—wewe are a partner with our customers, providing year-round compliance monitoring and automatic updates. No hassles. No hidden charges. No worries. 1-Year Compliance Plan does it all.
