Find Hidden Leave, Benefits, Payroll, and Compliance Gaps Before They Become Costly Problems
Start with a complimentary FLARE™ Discovery session or move into a comprehensive FLARE™ Assessment designed to evaluate your current processes, identify risks, and deliver a practical roadmap for improvement.
Why Employers Request a FLARE™ Assessment
Most employers do not reach out because everything is broken. They reach out because something feels unclear, inefficient, costly, inconsistent, or harder than it should be.
Costs Feel Too High
Benefit costs keep rising, but it is unclear whether the issue is plan design, billing, eligibility, vendor performance, or process gaps.
Leave Feels Messy
FMLA, disability, ADA, intermittent leave, payroll, and return-to-work processes can become difficult to manage consistently.
Risk Feels Hidden
Documentation, compliance readiness, employee communication, and vendor coordination may create exposure leadership cannot clearly see.

How a FLARE™ Assessment Works
Every employer's challenges are different, but the FLARE™ Assessment follows the same structured process: Find, Locate, Analyze, Recommend, and Elevate.
Find
Identify hidden gaps, risks, and inefficiencies.
Locate
Pinpoint where workflows break down.
Analyze
Evaluate operational, financial, and compliance impact.
Recommend
Prioritize practical improvement opportunities.
Elevate
Build a stronger, repeatable administration process.
Fictional Example: Mitch's Mega Gym Grows to 50 Employees
Mitch's Mega Gym has grown quickly and recently reached 50 employees. With that growth comes new administrative responsibilities, including the need to manage employee leave requests more consistently once employees meet FMLA eligibility requirements. The business has basic HR processes in place, but leave tracking, documentation, manager communication, payroll coordination, and benefits continuation have never been formally reviewed.
What FLARE™ Might Find
- No consistent process for identifying potential FMLA-qualifying absences
- Managers are unsure when HR should be notified
- Payroll and benefits teams lack leave communication checkpoints
- Employee documentation is handled informally
What FLARE™ Might Recommend
- Create a standard leave intake checklist
- Train managers on escalation triggers
- Build payroll and benefits checkpoints into the leave process
- Create a 90-day roadmap for improving administration
What You Receive With a Comprehensive FLARE™ Assessment

A concise overview of key findings, risks, and improvement opportunities.

A structured scorecard showing where your current process is strong and where risk exists.

Real Problems FLARE™ Is Built to Find
These are the types of issues that can quietly cost employers money, create compliance exposure, and drain HR capacity.
A leave and disability coordination breakdown caused an employee to remain on payroll longer than necessary.
Stronger documentation, cleaner workflows, and better tracking helped reduce confusion and improve administration.
Leave premium and COBRA reconciliation gaps created avoidable administrative losses and visibility problems.
