Ten Reasons HRCC is Right for your Business
HRCC is the most experienced, comprehensive Human Resource consulting firm in West Virginia. During her years of working for other company's, HRCC's founder, Bernie Deem, quickly learned that it is virtually impossible for an HR Department to manage the day-to-day demands of running a business AND stay current on the latest trends in HR and government regulations.
According to the Society of Human Resources Management, the average business maintains one HR employee per 110 employees. HRCC helps small businesses fill their need for HR support by providing an array of products and services that are essential to maintain compliance with government regulations and to motivate employees for successful business growth.
HRCC provides management advice in contrast to legal advice. Lawyers address what to do. HRCC addresses how to do it in a manner fitting with the Company culture and future expectations
Staffed by business professionals, HRCC combines the 'tried and true' with the 'unique and innovative'. Our staff is comprised of qualified individuals who are familiar with local customs and business practices. Our subscriptions to numerous associations, publications, and membership services keep our already knowledgeable staff current on changes and the latest trends in Human Resources in the Appalachian region.
Bernice "Bernie" Deem, Senior Professional in Human Resources, is the owner and president of HR Consulting Company, LLC, a statewide management consulting firm specializing in human resources. Prior to opening her company in 1999, Bernie had 20 years of hands on experience in HR, culminating as the Senior Executive of Human Resources for One Valley Bank and Bancorp (now BB&T).
During her HR career, Bernie has worked in every area of Human Resources, from writing handbooks to creating comprehensive salary administration plans. She also conducted seminars in several states on Leadership Development as well as providing training for HR professionals.

Their client list includes companies such as Kvaerner, Belington Bank, Flexsys, Republic Container, East Coast Building and Supply, City National Bank, Carbide/Dow, 3-M, and the West Virginia Bankers Association along with numerous other well-known businesses.
Bernie's experience in human resources, including the more technical areas, as well as her ability to analyze and synthesize complex information, has enabled her to provide this unique manual. Because she does not have a legal, academic, or behavioral background, she is able to communicate in the business terms HR professionals are accustomed to. Much of the information contained was developed with these individuals in mind.
HRCC specializes in information; gathering it; updating it; and providing it to you. Our staff continually acquires information from state and federal government agencies, reputable professional Human Resource publications, other HR practitioners, and through active involvement in local and regional professional organizations such as the Society of Human Resource Management (SHRM).
