Young Builder of the Year. states
that "building is in my blood."
His Russian-born grandfather
was a finish carpenter after
coming to Detroit in the 1920s,
and his father, Al, was the BIA's
Builder of the Year in 2003.
Richard graduated from
Michigan State University's

"The administrative burden of
HR requires an inordinate amount
of time and paperwork, creating a
need among businesses Ivho can't
afford a staff to keep up — let alone
recruit and screen new employees:'
said Schwartz."Our HR Solutions
Group guides companies to cost-
effective alternatives. Outsourcing
various HR functions can cut ben-
efit costs by more than 10 percent
and save valuable staff time.
"For example, the savings can
help offset rising health care costs"
In a recent study by Hewitt
Associates, an HR consulting firm
in Lincolnshire, Ill., 94 percent of
companies surveyed outsourced at
least one HR function.
One of the companies taking
advantage of the new HR Solutions
Group is Car Pack Manufacturing
Co. of Troy, a 56-year-old firm with
23 employees. Car Pack makes
products for the automotive indus-
try: fasteners, nuts, bolts, washers,
plastic clips and weather-stripping.
"We don't have a human
resources staff, so we're relying on
HR Solutions to take care of our
HR needs:' explained Jerry Levine
of Birmingham, vice president of
Car Pack.
"When we first met with Teresa
Schwartz and her colleagues, she
noticed right away that we weren't
providing certain benefits for our
employees, so we took care of that
right away',' said Levine, who also
is a JVS board member. "We're
relying on their expertise in these
matters."
JVS officials also view the new
subsidiary as an additional source
of revenue for the organization. It
employs 350 people and relies on
support from the Jewish
Federation of Metropolitan
Detroit, the Jewish Fund, Detroit
Workforce Development
Department, the Oakland and
Macomb County Community
Mental Health Authority, U.S. con-
tracts, general fees and grants for
vocational rehabilitation services
and United Way Community
Services.
"With a struggling Michigan
economy and reductions in grants
and donations to JVS in general,
we're always looking for additional
sources of income," said
Schwartz. E
