Bevel HR runs the people function for Madison companies with 10–75 employees — compliance, onboarding, payroll, and employee relations — so founders can get back to the business. Senior HR and people & culture support, starting at $1,800/month.
We work with biotech and health IT, university-adjacent startups, government, healthcare, and professional services across the Madison metro. If you have 10–75 employees and HR keeps landing on the founder or ops lead, that's exactly who Bevel HR is built for.
Wisconsin has specific wage-payment, recordkeeping, and one-day-rest-in-seven requirements. Madison's research and startup employers face additional classification complexity around postdocs, grant-funded staff, interns, and contractors — and getting exempt/non-exempt classification right for early employees is a recurring gap. If you're also hiring remotely across state lines, the complexity compounds fast. We track state-specific requirements for every client so you're never blindsided by a rule you didn't know applied.
