I’m Robin Benton, and I have worked for 37 years building a foundation in the human resource experience. I spent my first 17 years in the insurance field, and I have worked in every aspect of the industry, including billing, product design, compliance and computer automation. The complex field of Federal Regulations, including communicating and implementing them efficiently, is one of my specialties.
For the last 20 years, I have been a small business owner and CEO of BCL Systems, Inc., helping small- to mid-sized companies navigate the confusing realm of Federal Regulations. Many of my clients have been with me from the beginning.
I’ve managed to find ways to teach throughout my career. Whether it was training a national sales force, being a national speaker or helping to develop programs to train other Third-Party Administrators, I have always found ways to help others learn.
The BCL Systems, Inc. Family
The BCL Systems, Inc. staff has over 15 years of experience helping people. Our clients and their employees love BCL because they are not a number to us, but valued friends. They know us by our first name and love to call us, sometimes just to talk (which we love!).
Our success has been due to the personalized service and our ability to customize our services to meet our clients’ needs. We don’t force clients to fit into our ‘box’, but rather we talk to them and figure out the best way to help them without adding to the work they have to do every day.
While providing administrative services over the years, we have found that many small to mid-sized businesses either don’t have a dedicated Human Resource person or have a very small staff. This makes compliance with the many Federal Regulations that apply to them difficult. When the same person may also have to handle the books, develop products and do other things, it’s easy to understand how compliance might slip through the cracks.
Why BCL HR Helper?
We want to help the small- and mid-sized businesses navigate the Rules of the Road in the critical world of Federal Regulations. Combining my love of teaching and BCL Systems, Inc. personalized approach to Human Resource Management, We want BCL HR Helper to be your trusted source for up-to-date information and news, training, and even consulting or administration of your business’ compliance with Federal regulations.
Keeping up with the changes in regulations requires a large amount of time. Something most small- to mid-sized employers don’t have. The cost of non-compliance can wipe out a company. Sadly, we’ve seen companies have to close their doors because they were found to be out of compliance with one or more of the regulations.
For example, a limousine company thought they had no employees because they considered the drivers independent contractors. A disgruntled ex-driver reported them because he wanted unemployment benefits and was declined. The result was an audit and later a finding that their drivers were considered employees. The fines along with back taxes bankrupted the company.
Lack of knowledge is not considered an excuse and government agencies, sadly are not always interested in the impact it will have on your business. BCL HR Helper has been created to try to make the process of learning less painful so you can avoid a similar situation.
Here’s the trick with regulations, you don’t need to know everything, but simply need to know if the regulation applies to your company and how to comply.

Here’s the trick with regulations, you don’t need to know everything, but simply need to know if the regulation applies to your company how to comply. If you are using one or more of our administration services, you don’t have to worry about compliance. However, there are other regulations that employers still need to keep up with, even if you have as few as 15 employees. BCL HR Helper is meant to provide additional information that an employer may need to remain in compliance.
