Who we are
Latitude HR Group is an outsourced and fractional HR firm in Oldham County, Kentucky, for growing businesses of roughly 10 to 250 employees that don't have an HR person. Owner Ali Yoder brings 20+ years of HR leadership, most of it in manufacturing, and clients work with her directly. We serve the Louisville area, Southern Indiana and clients nationwide.
That's a lot of hats
Nobody was hired for it
You deserve more than a ticket number
Nobody was hired for it
Most of the owners, CFOs and office managers I meet ended up with HR the same way. Nobody was hired or trained for it, so it gets squeezed in between payroll, customers and everything else.
Small gaps add up

Nobody was hired for it
Each gap looks small on its own, which is why it gets pushed to next week. A missing write-up, a policy nobody follows, a new state's rules that slipped past. That's where most HR problems start, long before anyone mentions a lawsuit.

A lot of payroll platforms offer HR help as an add-on, and then every question becomes a ticket. With Latitude, you talk to Ali directly, with no call center and no script, and you keep your own payroll platform, records and final say, with no co-employment.
How we get your house in order: Find it, Rank it, Fix it
Find it. It starts with a free 30-minute call to see where your HR gaps might be. From there, the work usually begins with an HR Audit, where I review your employee files, I-9s, handbook, pay practices and required postings against federal and state law for every state you operate in.
Rank it. You get a plain-English written report that ranks every finding as high, moderate or low risk, with what it could cost and what to fix first. There are no 90-page binders and no gotchas. We walk through the report together, and it stays with you. If a finding needs an employment attorney, I’ll tell you.
Fix it. You can take care of the items yourself, or I can help, starting with the highest-risk areas. That can be ongoing HR support or hourly help on the pieces you’d rather hand off, whichever fits how you want to work.
We start where you are
HR Audits & Compliance
HR Projects & Fractional HR Support
HR Projects & Fractional HR Support
For the business that suspects there are gaps and doesn't know how big they are, especially if you grew fast, just hired your first managers, recently had an employee problem or are leaving a PEO. A flat-fee project that ends with a ranked report and a walk-through meeting.
HR Projects & Fractional HR Support
HR Projects & Fractional HR Support
HR Projects & Fractional HR Support
For one specific problem. That might be an employee handbook written for your states and headcount instead of a template or someone else's copy, or senior HR help on one defined project, billed by the hour.
Outsourced HR Support
HR Projects & Fractional HR Support
Outsourced HR Support
For the business that wants someone to own HR. I act as your HR department for a set number of hours each month, covering compliance, policies, employee relations, training and workshops, onboarding, hourly-role recruiting and on-call HR.
Every business had somebody doing HR
At networking events, I kept hearing the same story from owners. Somebody was doing HR, and that somebody usually wasn't an HR expert. It was a light bulb moment, and it's why Latitude HR Group exists.
Before this, I spent 20+ years in HR leadership, most of it in manufacturing, including a decade in union plants. I've walked into a plant with almost no HR structure and built the processes, policies and documentation from scratch. HR is HR, and it's not my first rodeo.

What our clients are saying
Frequently asked questions
We handle the HR work an owner or office manager has been doing on the side: policies and handbooks, employee issues, onboarding, hiring and keeping you in line with the rules for your states. Most clients start with an HR Audit so we fix the biggest gaps first.
Yes. While Latitude HR Group is based in Oldham County, Kentucky, we serve the Louisville area, Southern Indiana and clients nationwide. As needed on-site work is available in the Louisville area, and clients everywhere else are served virtually. HR Audits and Employee Handbooks cover every state you operate in.
Clients keep their own payroll platform, records and final say. There's no co-employment. You get senior HR help from Ali, not a call center or a script.
The consultation is free. HR Audits are flat-fee projects priced on your headcount and the number of states you operate in, and Employee Handbooks are priced by the number of states. Ongoing support is a monthly retainer, a project-based fee or hourly on an as-needed basis. I'll confirm your price after we talk.
That’s the goal! Every finding comes with its risk level, what it could cost and what to fix first, so you know exactly where to start. The report stays with you. You can work through the fixes yourself, or we can handle them with you through ongoing support or hourly work. I’m always happy to help!
No business is too small for HR law, and state law reaches small employers sooner than federal law does. Title VII applies at 15 employees. Kentucky anti-discrimination law applies at 8 employees for most claims (15 for disability and pregnancy), and Indiana anti-discrimination law applies at 6 employees. You probably don’t need someone in HR 40 hours a week. You need someone senior who knows where your gaps are and picks up the phone when the next question comes in.
It's a 30-minute call with me by phone or Teams video. We'll talk through how HR runs today and what's worth a closer look, and you'll know whether Latitude is the right fit. The call isn't an audit and it isn't legal advice.
