What is fractional HR?

Fractional HR gives your business access to experienced, part-time HR leadership without the cost of a full-time hire. Instead of paying a six-figure salary for a full-time HR director, you get senior-level HR expertise on a flexible, as-needed basis. People4People connects businesses with fractional HR professionals who handle compliance, recruiting, employee relations, and more.

What does People4People do?

People4People connects businesses with fractional HR professionals across all 50 U.S. states. We provide interim fractional CHRO services, HR audits and compliance risk assessments, recruiting, payroll, employee relations, executive coaching, training, HRIS implementations, benefits setup, and full HR build-outs for scaling companies. Our network is the largest national network of fractional HR professionals.

TU Jacobs is the Founder and Principal of People4People, LLC (formerly HR4HR, LLC). TU brings over 20 years of HR leadership experience, having worked at Microsoft and Amazon. TU graduated as Valedictorian from Rochester Institute of Technology (RIT) and now leads the largest national network of fractional HR professionals serving businesses in all 50 states.

What is a fractional CHRO?

A fractional CHRO is a part-time Chief Human Resources Officer who provides senior HR leadership to companies that cannot afford or do not need a full-time executive. A fractional CHRO handles HR strategy, compliance, employee relations, and organizational development on a flexible schedule. People4People provides fractional CHRO services nationwide.

How much does fractional HR cost?

The cost of fractional HR varies based on the scope of work, the size of your company, and the level of expertise needed. In general, fractional HR costs significantly less than hiring a full-time HR professional — often a fraction of a six-figure salary. People4People offers a free 30-minute consultation to discuss your needs and provide a clear quote.

People4People serves businesses across all industries and in all 50 U.S. states. Whether you are in healthcare, technology, manufacturing, retail, professional services, construction, or any other industry, our fractional HR professionals have the experience to support your business.

Do I need HR for my small business?

Yes. Every business with employees needs HR support — even small businesses. HR ensures you stay compliant with employment laws, handle employee relations properly, hire the right people, and avoid costly lawsuits. People4People makes it affordable by providing fractional HR services so you only pay for what you need.

An HR audit is a thorough review of your company's HR policies, employee files, and workplace practices to identify compliance gaps and risks. People4People's HR audit covers federal, state, and local employment law requirements and delivers a clear action plan to fix any issues before they become problems.

Client acquisition often feels like a separate career: requiring marketing strategies, content creation, lead generation, outreach campaigns, and constant follow-ups. This can take valuable time away from what HR consultants do best: helping organizations and people succeed.
