AccessPoint HR And Advance Employment Merge Companies

Proquest LLC

AccessPoint and Advance Employment announced the merger of their companies to form a unified human resources outsourcing, recruiting, and staffing firm.

According to a release, the new, combined venture will provide clients with workforce management solutions covering the complete employment life-cycle, from initial job posting through retirement. The corporate name of the new entity will be AccessPoint, which will have multiple dedicated business units, including AccessPoint HR, a provider of outsourced human resources management solutions, professional employer services and safety consulting. The Advance Employment division will deliver recruiting, temporary, and direct- hire staffing solutions for employers in a broad range of job classifications. AccessPoint Benefits Group will provide employee benefits expertise for small to medium size employers. Finally, AccessPoint Accounting Services will offer outsourced accounting services that integrate with clients' payroll, benefits, and HRIS systems through AccessPoint HR.

As leaders in their respective fields, each entity brings expertise and decades of experience to the organization which will deliver services from 15 offices across 9 states with over 100 professional staff members. Clients will get the benefit of a Fortune 500-level human resources and risk management department that is delivered at a scale appropriate to their needs and budget requirements. AccessPoint allows entrepreneurs and employers to focus on growing their organizations with greater emphasis on their core business without worrying about the time and intricacies of human resources, hiring and risk management.

Greg Packer, CEO AccessPoint, said, "We are merging two great cultures and service teams to form one exceptional organization. The "we care" attitude our clients have come to expect will continue unchanged. This merger presents enhanced and integrated HR Management, recruiting and staffing, accounting, and comprehensive employee benefits solutions, while maintaining the same commitment to seamless, expert execution designed to allow our clients to confidently focus on what they do best."

Blaine Shultz, President of Advance Employment, added, "We are excited about our combined and expanded capabilities. This merger will create unprecedented opportunities for our clients to grow through the ability to focus on their core business while also being able to easily access the most talented workforce. We have an ideal solution now for smaller employers, Charter Schools, foreign-based companies, and larger manufacturing companies. With this merger we have substantially broadened our expertise and capacity."

As CEO of AccessPoint Greg Packer will lead the overall organization, while Blaine Schultz continues in his role as President of Advance Employment. The combined organization will be headquartered in Novi, Michigan with the Advance Employment team operating out of Lansing, Michigan. Packer added further, "Part of what made so much sense with this merger is the fact that our combined office locations have almost no conflicts, giving us the opportunity to leverage our presence in each market using the strength of our respective reputations to be the industry leader in every market."

AccessPoint is a human resources management company.

AccessPoint added its core mission is to provide administrative, human resource and staffing solutions relief to busy business executives. As businesses constantly strive for better ways to streamline their operations and minimize their liabilities and risk, business owners can outsource HR to AccessPoint and focus on the core business functions that make them profitable.
