# HR support. Answers for your HR team.

Your HR team handles questions that sit beside benefits: leave, policies, documents and employee issues. Ethos Benefits gives your team access to an HR hotline for expert answers, help creating and updating handbooks, document review and training, so benefits and HR questions get answered in the same place.

## What you get.

Benefits questions rarely arrive alone. An employee's leave, a policy change or a termination usually has a benefits side, and HR needs answers on both.

1.  **HR hotline** Expert answers on HR and employment questions for your HR team.
2.  **Handbooks** Help creating and updating your employee handbook.
3.  **Document review** Policies and HR documents reviewed, with customizable templates.
4.  **Training** Training resources for your HR team and managers.

## Benefits _and HR together._

Leave of absence, terminations, new hires and policy changes all touch benefits: eligibility, COBRA, coverage continuation and communication. With HR support and benefits support in one place, your team gets one answer instead of two.

## Part of your Fiduciary Framework™.

Every Ethos service reports to your benefits committee. The work is reviewed at your quarterly committee meeting, each decision is recorded with the reasoning behind it, and the record lives in your Ethos Fiduciary OS. That is what lets your committee show the plan was run prudently.

How does it connect to benefits?

Leave, terminations, eligibility and policy changes often affect benefits. Ethos sees both sides, so nothing falls between them.
