LilyHR is a Canadian fractional HR firm built for businesses across the country. We work as your HR department — CPHR-certified, province-specific, and available when you need us.
Most businesses in Canada navigate employment law completely alone. We started LilyHR to change that.
The people running Canada's businesses are builders, operators, and entrepreneurs. HR law is not their expertise — and it shouldn't have to be. But the consequences of getting it wrong are real: wrongful dismissal claims, provincial workers' compensation penalties, and the compounding cost of doing things by feel rather than by the book.
LilyHR was built to give Canadian businesses access to the same quality of HR support that large organizations take for granted — without requiring them to hire a full-time team to get it.
We specialize in Canadian employment law, province by province. That focus means every piece of guidance we give, every contract we draft, and every policy we develop is built on deep, current knowledge of the employment standards, workers' compensation requirements, and human rights code that actually apply where your business operates — not generic advice that ignores the details that matter.
Canada has 13 different employment law jurisdictions. Each province and territory has its own Employment Standards Act, its own overtime rules, its own leave entitlements, and its own approach to termination and severance. Generic "Canada-wide" HR advice often gets the details wrong.
By tracking every province's legislation closely — not just the one we happen to be based in — we know the nuances of each jurisdiction's employment standards, workers' compensation obligations, and human rights code, and how local courts interpret common law severance. When you ask us a question about your business, you get an answer built for your province — not a hedged response that covers every province at once.

We don't give generic, one-size-fits-all HR advice. Every recommendation we make is grounded in the employment law of the province your business operates in.
We work as an extension of your team, not as an external vendor you call once a year. We get to know your business, your people, and your goals — so our advice is always in context.
HR and employment law can be dense. We explain things in plain language, give you direct answers, and tell you when something is worth worrying about and when it isn't.
HR situations don't always happen at convenient times. We commit to 48-hour response times on Essential retainers and 24-hour priority response on Full Support — because timing matters.
The most expensive HR problems are the ones that could have been prevented. We stay ahead of legislative changes, flag emerging risks, and help you build the processes that stop problems before they start.
Everything you share with us is treated with the same professional confidentiality you'd expect from a lawyer or accountant. Your people, your situations, and your business remain private.
