GryphonHR, an OU INC client, recently received a BAF award from the Michigan Economic Development Corporation (MEDC) to help further their work in Form I-9 and HR compliance in Southeast Michigan. GryphonHR utilizes their new online HR management platform to provide services for businesses of all sizes and industries.
Founded in 2018 by seasoned HR compliance executives, GryphonHR software is designed to provide a centralized and secure platform to employers interested in incorporating compliance into the hiring process for the entire lifecycle of their employees and contractors, regardless of hiring country, state, industry, or job. The platform is simple, streamlined and easily accessible from nearly anywhere by today’s mobile-centric workforce.
GryphonHR became a client of OU INC in March 2020 and has continued to grow and cultivate their ideas since. The hard work and dedication behind GryphonHR resulted in the accumulation of an $8,700 BAF grant. Currently, the business is transitioning from the beta stage to General Availability (GA) of their GryphonI9 product, a Form I-9 and E-Verify compliance solution.
“The BAF grant program is a tremendous opportunity for small businesses to work with the MEDC through the OU INC business incubator. The funding has been crucial to our strategy execution and has assisted us tremendously for our GA launch,” said Marc Villella, CEO of GryphonHR.
“It has truly been remarkable to see GryphonHR’s rapid growth,” said Steve Kent, OU INC Manager and Client Strategist. “GryphonHR’s ingenuity and ability to continuously build upon their technology and opportunities has resulted in their great success. It is a great privilege to assist them in their development.”
Staying on top of employment regulations can be challenging for many human resources and staffing professionals, and mistakes can lead to fines and business disruption. During these uncertain times, GryphonHR aims to help propel businesses forward by helping to ease the burden of employment compliance, enabling human resources and staffing professionals to focus on other priorities.
Additionally, Gryphon HR has launched a new website to provide more information.
