When businesses are birthed, it is typically the owner who gets things started. Once a business experiences a measure of success, all of a sudden the employer is forced to figure out how to manage the small business and how the human resource aspect should be run. This can be an exciting, yet painful, process to try and figure out all the legalities of hiring employees.
