About Personnel Policy Service, Inc.

Since 1972, Personnel Policy Service, Inc. (PPS) has focused on serving the growing needs of employers for practical HR policy and compliance solutions.

Over the years, we have developed comprehensive databases of HR policies, best practices, and legal explanations that serve as the core for our specialized publications.

Nationwide, thousands of HR professionals, business owners, consultants, and lawyers rely on it for quick answers, thorough research, and ready-to-use models.

Headquartered in Louisville, Kentucky, PPS was founded by Jay and Leslie Norman and is now moving into its second generation as the Normans' two daughters are both active in the business.
