You\u2019re no longer just hiring to fill immediate gaps; you\u2019re building an organization.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Between managing a growing team, formalizing benefits, and staying compliant with new employment laws, this phase marks a major shift from startup scrappiness to structured growth.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At this stage of company growth, we usually see founders start to navigate the following hiring and retention approaches. You\u2019ll begin layering in policies and systems that not only attract and retain great talent but also protect your company as you scale \u2014 from offering health coverage and retirement plans to setting time-off policies and maintaining compliance with OSHA and nondiscrimination laws.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Benefits packages<\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You have a few key categories to consider here:<\/span><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Health coverage<\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When employees join an ultra-small team, they usually know that means accepting a minimal benefits package. As your company scales, though, so will employee expectations for perks.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Health insurance is a huge one here. If your company\u2019s not yet in a position to manage a group health plan, you might want to consider offering a healthcare stipend to team members.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A healthcare stipend can be a great in-between option. This is a set amount of money you give employees to help cover their own health or wellness expenses, like insurance premiums, doctor visits, or gym memberships. It gives your team flexibility to choose what works best for them. Just remember that healthcare stipends usually count as taxable income, so make sure they\u2019re included properly in payroll.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Offering this kind of benefit can go a long way in showing employees you care about their well-being, even as a small but growing business.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Fringe Benefits<\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Beyond healthcare, fringe benefits are the extra perks employers offer in addition to regular pay, such as paid time off, retirement contributions, bonuses, or wellness stipends. These benefits help attract and keep great employees while supporting their overall well-being. Some fringe benefits, such as health insurance or retirement contributions, are usually tax-free, while others, like cash bonuses or stipends, are taxable. Be sure to review<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.irs.gov\/publications\/p15b\"> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">IRS guidelines<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> on fringe benefits carefully to ensure you\u2019re handling taxes and reporting correctly.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Even small perks can make a big difference in showing your team they\u2019re valued and in creating a positive, supportive workplace culture, which we\u2019ll delve into in the next section.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<h5><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Paid and unpaid time off<\/span><\/h5>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">First, set a policy for which holidays your company gives employees off with pay.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You should also develop a clear plan for your paid time off (PTO), also called paid vacation time (PVT). Will your company offer that separately from sick time, or does PTO and sick time aggregate in a single bank? Do employees earn PTO as they work more hours, or do they get a certain number of days over set time periods?\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As you\u2019re working on your time-off policy for employees, consider parental and bereavement leave. Even if your company can\u2019t afford to pay for some or all of it, offering protected leave to your employees can help you retain talented people during seasons of transition in their lives.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<h5><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Retirement plans<\/span><\/h5>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Your company may want to offer a way to help employees save for retirement. For small businesses, the best options here are usually Savings Incentive Match Plan for Employees (SIMPLE), individual retirement accounts (IRAs), or 401(k)s. Your CPA can help you figure out the best option for your company and your team.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With your retirement plan in place, you can start monitoring the possibility of offering an employer match to your employees. It might be too early now, but planning for that in the future helps you build out a more robust benefits package as your company grows.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Nondiscrimination laws<\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At 15 employees, your company needs to comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). Title VII kicks in, too, which prohibits discrimination based on race, sex, religion, and more. Your hiring and employment practices can\u2019t be discriminatory toward protected groups or you risk <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.eeoc.gov\/remedies-employment-discrimination\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">penalties<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At 20 employees, the Age Discrimination in Employment Act (ADEA) goes into effect, protecting employees ages 40 and over.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">OSHA requirements<\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Technically, U.S. employers are required to provide a safe work environment, no matter their size. But at 10 employees, you\u2019re subject to <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.osha.gov\/recordkeeping\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">recordkeeping requirements<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> from the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). That means you need to keep records of any serious workplace injuries or illnesses. You also need to annually post that log for all current and former employees.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Under OSHA requirements, you need to keep employees safe by posting warnings about potential hazards and providing safety training, too.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The OSHA website has <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.osha.gov\/workers\/employer-responsibilities\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">a list of employer responsibilities<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> that can help you manage your to-dos here.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">HR\/People teams<\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As your team grows, so does the work of managing it. Whether you call it human resources (HR) or your people team, you want to start developing infrastructure here.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For small businesses, that probably doesn\u2019t mean building out a full-fledged HR\/people department. Instead, you can probably get the support you and your team need through options like a <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/shaycpa.com\/peo-vs-payroll-company-what-should-my-tech-company-choose\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">professional employer organization (PEO)<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> or fractional HR services.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The partners we highlighted earlier all offer PEO services:<\/span><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">That means they can handle onboarding, performance reviews, and even the administration of your benefits package for you.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Stock option plans<\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At this stage, you want to create or expand your stock option plan if you haven\u2019t done so already. <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/shaycpa.com\/exercising-your-stock-options-important-things-to-consider\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Different types of stock<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> have different exercise options, so it\u2019s important to be thoughtful about your approach here. Decide if you want to offer incentive stock options (ISOs) or nonstatutory options (NSOs). Your CPA can help here.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">They can also help you manage your company\u2019s equity with tools like a capitalization table (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/shaycpa.com\/what-is-a-cap-table-how-does-it-impact-my-financials\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">cap table<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">). Carefully tracking what you\u2019re doling out is key so that you don\u2019t dilute equity for yourself, your co-founders, and your investors. While shares can be a great way to bolster your compensation packages, you need a thorough stock distribution plan to protect your company long-term. Again, an experienced CPA \u2014 particularly one that regularly works with startups \u2014 can help to guide you.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Support as you scale<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As your company grows, some things get easier and some get harder. One thing never changes once you bring on your first employee, though: the human capital in your business means you need to take certain steps. From payroll filings to legal compliance measures, there\u2019s a lot your business needs to do to stay square here.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ideally, this guide helped you dip your toe into all of it. You still might feel like there are a lot of moving parts here, though \u2014\u00a0because there are. Bringing the right people and solutions alongside you makes a big difference.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Here at ShayCPA, our team specifically focuses on working with tech startups. That means we have extensive experience with all of the different requirements that come with scaling up your headcount. We can step in to offer guidance and make recommendations to help you stay compliant while setting your company up for success.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As part of that guidance, we again want to highlight our payroll and PEO partners. We\u2019ve chosen to work with these companies because we\u2019ve seen the serious value-add they bring to founders.
