WHAT HVAC & PLUMBING HR RISK COSTS<\/h6>\n\t\t
\n
\n \t\t\t

$98,800\/yr<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t

Avg. salary of a single in-house HR manager<\/p>\n\t\t\n<\/div>\n

\n \t\t\t

Cost to replace a trained service technician<\/p>\n\t\t\n<\/div>\n

\n \t\t\t

On-call OT<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t

Wage & hour exposure from after-hours calls<\/p>\n\t\t\n<\/div>\n

\n \t\t\t

10 hrs\/wk<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t

Owner time reclaimed with HR offloaded<\/p>\n\t\t\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n \t\t\t
SOUND FAMILIAR?<\/h6>\n\t\t\t\t\t

HVAC & plumbing HR breaks under load.<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t

Seasonal spikes, on-call rotations, licensed trades, and trucks on the road make contractor HR uniquely risky.<\/p>\n\t\t

\n
\n \t\t\t
01<\/h6>\n\t\t\t\t\t

Skilled techs are almost impossible to find<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t

The tech shortage is real. Without a real pipeline and an apprenticeship path, you\u2019re stuck poaching, overpaying, or running short-handed in peak season.<\/p>\n\t\t\n<\/div>\n

\n \t\t\t
02<\/h6>\n\t\t\t\t\t

On-call and overtime is a wage claim waiting to happen<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t

After-hours calls, drive time, and on-call pay rules vary by state. Miscalculate it across a crew and one complaint becomes a class action.<\/p>\n\t\t\n<\/div>\n

\n \t\t\t
03<\/h6>\n\t\t\t\t\t

Licensing and certs slip through the cracks<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t

EPA 608, journeyman and master licenses, and continuing ed get tracked on a whiteboard \u2014 until one lapses and a job (or your insurance) is on the line.<\/p>\n\t\t\n<\/div>\n

\n \t\t\t
04<\/h6>\n\t\t\t\t\t

Turnover eats your install and service margin<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t

Every tech who quits takes training, callbacks, and route capacity with them. Replacing a trained tech can run 30% of salary.<\/p>\n\t\t\n<\/div>\n

\n \t\t\t
05<\/h6>\n\t\t\t\t\t

Seasonal demand wrecks your hiring<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t

Heat waves and freeze events force panic hiring, so onboarding gets skipped and quality \u2014 and safety \u2014 slip when it matters most.<\/p>\n\t\t\n<\/div>\n

\n \t\t\t
06<\/h6>\n\t\t\t\t\t

New techs get thrown on a truck and quit<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t

No structured ride-along or 30\/60\/90 onboarding, so apprentices and junior techs wash out before they ever become profitable.<\/p>\n\t\t\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n \t\t\t
HOW WE HELP<\/h6>\n\t\t\t\t\t

PARTNER<\/h6>\n\t\t\t\t\t
