I'm Claire Sutton, founder of Sutton Essentials and a Human Resources professional with twenty-five years of experience, including fifteen years as an HR Manager.

Several years ago I noticed a gap that nobody was talking about. Large corporations have entire HR departments. Small business owners are doing it themselves — often without training, without proper documentation, and without knowing what the law actually requires of them.

I kept watching small business owners make the same expensive HR mistakes. Not because they were careless. Because nobody had ever explained the rules in plain English.

Everything at Sutton Essentials was built for the business owner who is hiring their first employee, dealing with a difficult situation, or trying to figure out what they are legally required to have in place — while also running their business.

Plain language. Practical templates. No jargon. No consultant fees.
