At Aliat, we provide business owners much-needed support so you can focus on what you do best: growing your business. That support starts with taking care of your employees – offering them efficient and reliable human resource services and premium healthcare benefits (at a price you can handle). We offer human resource services to small to midsized business owners throughout the United States. Our services include payroll management, compliance oversight and premium healthcare benefits. We’ve partnered with Cigna to offer a group insurance plan that is not otherwise available to small businesses or through an insurance broker. If you’re interested in applying for our program, let’s schedule a time to talk. In my role as Chief Risk Officer, I own the strategy to ensure our programs perform optimally. This includes day to day quote review for our insurance plans and working with our strategic partners to ensure we're aligned appropriately to hit our short and long-term goals.Aliat Explainer Videohttps://vimeo.com/253517221 Aliat Websitehttp://myaliat.com/
