The new space reflects some of the requirements of operating in the midst of the COVID pandemic. The space is divided into two offices and an executive suite and has space that can be isolated by rolling dividers to create a training area.<br \/>\nPinnacle serves companies in Saratoga and Warren counties. In all, the company has 23 employees, 20 of whom are HR professionals.<br \/>\n\u201cWe need space that is fluid and flexible,\u201d said Rose Miller, company president. The desks are spaced 10 feet apart and each one is supplied with hand sanitizer and its own telephone.<br \/>\n\u201cI don\u2019t need an office that houses 23 people,\u201d she said. Most of the work is done at clients\u2019 sites and six desks in Albany are sufficient. A training area is something Miller has wanted for a long time and for the first time, she was able to create it.<!--more--><br \/>\nThe kinds of work the company does also reflects changes due to the pandemic. Clients want advice about restructuring their space, bringing their employees back to work, dealing with employees who refuse to wear masks and similar problems.<br \/>\n\u201cYou can mitigate a lot of risk if you have an HR pro in your back pocket,\u201d she said.<br \/>\nA current big seller is a smartphone app that enables employees to check in from home before coming to work, she said. Each day, employees can register their temperatures and respond to a list of questions. The report goes to the employer before the employee is permitted to come to work. Pinnacle can help set it up and customize it for each individual employer.<br \/>\nPinnacle also produces \u201ctons of webinars,\u201d according to Miller. They bring employers up to date on laws and regulations and provide tips on keeping everyone safe at work.<br \/>\n\u201cIt\u2019s taking up every working moment,\u201d Miller said. She cannot imagine an employer who tries to do it his or herself having time left over to operate a business.<br \/>\nOther services the company provides include employee handbooks, compensation systems, sexual harassment and diversity training programs, and merger assistance. A growing area is a leave-of-absence administration service.<br \/>\nThe main advantage to using Pinnacle, Miller said, is that \u201cemployers can call us when they need us.\u201d They enjoy \u201cflexibility and scaleability.\u201d<br \/>\nShe sees more employers seeing the need for good HR assistance without creating an in-house department.<br \/>\nMore information is available on the company\u2019s website, pinnaclehrllc.com or by telephone at 518 486-8152.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Jill Nagy Pinnacle Human Resources last month moved into new offices in Albany.
