Claims Responses: Frequently Asked Questions
1. Which types of claims does Shorefront HR Partners manage?
We handle a comprehensive range of employment-related claims, including unemployment insurance, workers’ compensation, EEOC charges, and state-level labor board complaints. Our team is equipped to navigate the specific procedural requirements of each regulatory body to ensure your organization remains fully protected.
2. How do you help reduce the cost of unemployment claims?
We aggressively monitor all claims and file professional protests against those that do not meet eligibility requirements, such as voluntary resignations or terminations for gross misconduct. By successfully contesting invalid claims, we help minimize the impact on your unemployment tax rate and prevent unnecessary benefit payouts.
3. What is the process for responding to an EEOC or discrimination charge?
Upon notification, we conduct an immediate internal audit to gather all relevant personnel files and communications. We then draft a formal Position Statement that addresses each allegation with factual evidence. Our objective is to demonstrate non-discriminatory, business-related justifications for all personnel actions, aiming for a “no-cause” finding.
4. How do you assist with Workers' Compensation claims?
We coordinate between your insurance carrier, the medical providers, and the employee to ensure the claim is handled efficiently. Our focus is on cost containment and early return-to-work strategies, which help reduce the duration of the claim and lower your overall insurance premiums over time.
