S5E15: How a Lack of HR Compliance Can be Costly to Your Business with Neil Cosby

REVUP Your Business with Hilda Gan

Workplace compliance is about more than just health and safety – it impacts every aspect of your business, including employment standards, occupational safety, workplace harassment, diversity, human rights, disability and financial risks. If you want to create a place where people are more engaged, loyal, and increased in productivity, create a culture where they feel that you care about them.

Neil Cosby is the HR Consulting Manager for HR Covered. He started his career as a social worker and became more business-oriented and got involved in Human Resources because he is passionate about it. He calls himself an “HR Nerd” and has worked in various industries, in the private and non-profit sectors and in unionized and non-unionized workplaces. A true believer in the necessity of building solid HR infrastructure in any organization that is aligned with the overall business/organization goals, Neil has developed many organizations from the ground up, using his wealth of knowledge, experience, and expertise in HR systems, recruitment and talent acquisition, health and safety, performance management and labour and employee relationships.
