Jeri Bartunek is the SBA’s 2009 Kansas Small Business Person of the Year.</p><p>Bartunek, owner of Bartunek Technology Group Inc. in Overland Park, is being recognized by the Kansas City District Office of the U.S. Small Business Administration for improving the climate and increasing the economic opportunities for small businesses, and for volunteer work in the community.</p><p>Bartunek Technology Group is a staffing company serving clients locally and throughout the U.S. Clients have included AT&T, Nortel, Sprint, Bank of America, Verizon, MasterCard, Burns & McDonnell, and the U.S. Department of Justice.</p><p>“My goal is to employ people, giving them opportunities for career development, and to give corporations opportunities to put A-level people into their mix to facilitate their success,” she said.</p><p>After many years at IBM and Sprint, Bartunek became disillusioned with “corporate office politics” and left to start a business in 1989. A single parent, she relied on personal funds to finance the company, limiting the growth of the business.</p><p>“At that time if you were in business for less than three years they wouldn’t loan you money,” she said. “Staffing is not like a manufacturing company where you can put up the company’s assets, like the plant and widgets.”</p><p>She also weathered the 2001 downturn in the telecommunications and data fields, and the flat IT market. To survive, she closed her St. Louis office, laid off employees, and moved from Corporate Woods to a home-based office in Overland Park.</p><p>“I’ve seen some companies reach far and stretch but I’ve always been really cautious, depending on the year, and I’m still in business,” she said. “You have to play to the economy.”</p><p>The company rebounded by focusing on high-tech personnel in IT and engineering.</p><p>She also received entrepreneurial training through the FastTrac program, and is a client of the University of Missouri Extension Small Business and Technology Center, where she is receiving training and mentoring.</p><p>Bartunek Technology Group has 12 employees and was one of the Greater Kansas City Chamber of Commerce’s Top Ten small businesses of the year in 2008.</p><p>The SBA last week also announced two Region VII winners (for Kansas, Missouri, Iowa and Nebraska):</p><p>•Richard Gier, owner of the Law Office of Richard Gier P.A., is Home-Based Business Champion.

Is workers comp required of kansas small business, I have 3 employees?
Jul 31, 2008 by Maxwell460 | Posted in Small Business
Kansas exempts companies with annual payrolls less than $20,000.
Some states exempt employers in specific sectors from carrying workman's comp insurance. For example, agriculture employers and independent real estate agents are often exempt.
The downside to NOT carrying Workers comp is, of course, you expose yourself to lawsuits.

In Kansas does a small business owner have the right to know WHY you are seeing a doctor?
Apr 02, 2008 by SCUZE-ME | Posted in Law & Ethics
My boss is arguing with me that because he owns a small business that "big corporation rules" don't apply to him. In this discussion he told me it is his right to know WHAT his employees are sick with, even if just for a day, and WHY they are going to the doctor, even if just for an hour or so.
I told him he is WRONG. He may decide whether or not to pay them for the time off but it is NOT his business to know WHY.
I can't find anything on the internet to support my argument. Your input would be appreciated either way.
He does not have the right to know what you are seeing the doctor for. Theres plenty of federal "HIPA" laws (the privacy book you get from the doctor) the protect you. I would contact the labor board and ask them for guidance. He doesnt have to pay you, but hes pushing the limit otherwise.
Even the "big corporation rules" apply to him, they apply to everyone. It sounds like hes just trying to be nosey, and make sure that people are really sick and going to the doctor when they are taking medical time off, or calling in sick.

Kansas City Business Associations?
Feb 21, 2007 by bocaboca22 | Posted in Kansas City
Any good business groups or associations in KC besides the Chamber of Commerce? I'm looking for an economical way to promote my small business in Kansas City.
This website http://www.kctops.com/ is a directory of Kansas City businesses. I know you can list your restaurant, apartment, hotel, real estate business for free. Any other business has to add a link to the site to get listed on the business directory. Besides that they dont charge anything to be listed on the site.
