Same Page HR’s Fractional HR Model
Ideal for growing companies of 10-100 employees who need flexible, cost-efficient, and dependable HR support. How does it work?
A dedicated, remote HR Generalist we call a People Partner becomes your employee-facing HR pro for 20, 40, or 60 hours per month.
Your People Partner is supported by our team and resources, giving you the benefits of an HR department at a fraction of the price.
People Partners manage: hiring support | onboarding | payroll | benefits | engagement | performance review | policy creation & storage | issue escalation | compliance monitoring | off boarding
We use your tech, systems, and brokers (but can recommend and even implement others if you need a change).
Our team members are US-based with an average of 10 years HR experience. We have simple, monthly pricing and can get started in as little as a week.
Same Page HR’s fractional HR model is ideal for three specific use cases:
Companies who need to build and manage an HR function from scratch
A small HR team or an HR-department-of-one in need of tactical support
An interim solution for a project or an HR team member on leave
Frequently Asked Questions
-
Fractional HR means getting an experienced HR professional for 5-20 hours a week instead of hiring one full-time. You get expert HR support sized to your company, at a fraction of the cost of a full-time HR manager.
-
We pair you with a dedicated People Partner, a US-based HR Generalist who becomes your employees' go-to HR contact. Your People Partner works 20, 40, or 60 hours per month depending on your needs, with support from Same Page's broader team and resources.
-
We cover ten core HR responsibilities: hiring support, onboarding, payroll administration, benefits administration, employee engagement, performance reviews, policy creation and storage, employee relations, compliance monitoring, and the exit process.
-
Our clients typically fall into two categories: The first have under 100 employees (some as small as 10 employees) and no HR department of their own. Someone who never wanted to run HR, usually the founder or head of operations or finance, finds themselves wearing the HR hat.
The second category is businesses with an HR department-of-one who needs HR admin support but does not want to hire another full-time person. These companies generally fall in the 100-500 employee range.
-
Yes. Our team works remotely, and we currently serve about 70 clients in numerous states across the US, from California to Georgia to New York.
-

-
We aim to match a client with a People Partner within a day or two and can usually get kicked off within a week.

-
Our People Partners are US-based HR Generalists who average 10 years of experience. Many hold SHRM-CP, SHRM-SCP, or PHR certifications as well, although we’ve found applicable experience to be the most valuable.
-
A PEO co-employs your staff, which means your employees go onto the PEO's payroll and benefit plans.
With Same Page, you keep your own payroll, benefits, and employer identity, and we manage the HR work for you.
In some cases, we work with a PEO that is already in place, providing dedicated and integrated human support. We also often help companies transition off a PEO.
-
Our clients have told us they like that they are getting a team when they use Same Page; they get the simplicity of a single-point-of-contact (their People Partner) while also getting the additional experience of our team. Further, you don’t need to worry about benefits, payroll tax, PTO, or development for a People Partner.
A full-time HR manager makes sense once your HR workload fills a full-time role, often around 100+ employees. Before then, fractional HR gives you experienced support for less than the cost of a salary and benefits.
-
Yes. We work within the systems you already use, including Gusto, Rippling, ADP, BambooHR, etc. If you don't have an HRIS yet, we can help you choose and set one up.
-
An HR audit reviews your policies, documents, and practices to find compliance gaps and risks. It's a smart first step if you've never had dedicated HR support, are growing quickly, or are hiring in new states.
-
Yes. Employee relations and the exit process are part of our core services. We help you document issues, have hard conversations, and handle terminations fairly and compliantly.
-
Common signs include nearing 50 employees, hiring in a new state, spending too much leadership time on people issues, growing rapidly, or facing an employee complaint you're not sure how to handle.
-
Yes. We regularly work alongside benefits brokers, CPAs, and employment attorneys. Our People Partners handle day-to-day benefits administration while your broker manages plan strategy.
-
We're HR professionals, not attorneys. When an issue needs legal counsel, we'll tell you and will coordinate with your employment attorney. If you don’t have an employment attorney, we can help connect you to one.
-
We have a long and rigorous interview process consisting of multiple challenges, ensuring team members demonstrate our core values: take initiative, surprise & delight, follow-through, and bring contagious calm.
Each People Partner is supported by a Client Success Manager who was also a former HR Director, so you get the benefit of our collective experience. And that’s a lot of experience—on average, a team member has spent 10+ years in HR.
