SHRM-SCP & SPHR Certified

Ready-to-Use HR Templates

Built for Small Teams & Nonprofits

Every growing business hits the same wall. You need an offer letter today, a corrective action form next week, and a sick time policy that actually complies with Michigan law. Searching the internet gets you generic documents written for no state in particular, and hiring a consultant to draft each one adds up fast.

HR Elevated Templates is the middle path: professionally drafted documents you can download and customize in minutes, built and maintained by an HR consultant who tracks the laws that apply to you.

Step 1: Subscribe. Choose the Starter or Pro plan, monthly or annual.

Step 2: Download. Every template comes in editable Word format with clear guidance on how to customize it for your organization.

Step 3: Stay current. Pro members get a new template or compliance update every month, so when the law changes, your library changes with it.

These are not generic internet templates. Every document in this library started as real work product for real Michigan businesses: childcare centers, nonprofits, security firms, printers, and professional services companies. The library covers:

  • Hiring: job descriptions, interview guides, offer letters, rejection letters
  • Onboarding: welcome emails, first-day agendas, 30/60/90 checklists, paperwork checklists
  • Policies: attendance, PTO, dress code, social media, remote work, confidentiality
  • Michigan compliance: ESTA paid sick time policies, handbook addendums, child labor references
  • Performance and discipline: review forms, corrective actions, performance improvement plans
  • Separation: termination letters, exit interviews, separation checklists
  • Contractors: independent contractor agreements and classification checklists

HR Elevated Templates is built by Marilyn Davis, Founder and Principal Consultant of HR Elevated LLC, a Michigan-based HR consulting firm serving small businesses and nonprofits since 2019. Marilyn holds the SHRM-SCP, SPHR, and CCP certifications, along with the HRCI Pro in AI for Human Resources credential, and every template reflects the same standards she brings to her consulting clients.

When employment law changes, the library gets updated. That is the difference between a template shop and a consultant-maintained resource.

Templates handle the routine. For everything else, HR Elevated offers consulting engagements: custom employee handbooks, compliance audits, compensation studies, workplace training, and fractional HR support on retainer.
