Important information
- Additional Info:This company has a pattern of complaint alleging deceptive sales practices.
Specifically, complaints allege businesses received an official looking document via mail containing an "2019 - Annual Report Instruction Form" asking the recipient to complete the form and return it to Workplace Compliance Services with payment of $95. Most felt that the mailer was deceptive, as it appears "official and required."
BBB cautions businesses in completing the form and sending $95 to Workplace Compliant Services, as the company is not a government agency and the address listed on the mailer is that of UPS Store box and not the physical address for the company. In addition, the company website https://www.workplacecomplianceannualreport.com/optin was created on August 30, 2018 with a hidden domain. The Contact/Privacy Policy/Terms&Conditions are all inactive links and inaccessible on the website.
Although, Tennessee corporations are required to file an annual report, this can be done online for a nominal fee of $20.00 by clicking the following link and locating your business on the Secretary of State's website at: https://sos.tn.gov. If you have additional information as to this company's whereabouts, BBB would like to speak with you. Please call 615.242.4222 or email us your experience at [email protected]. - Additional Info:BBB called the company on December 13, 2018 and spoke with a representative who declined to give the ownership or CEO of the company. However, supplied their physical address of 7718 N. Port Dr., Lansing, MI 48917. BBB researched this address and was told this was currently a vacant building.

Additional Information
- Payment methods
- BBB has noted a pattern of complaints against Workplace Compliance Services, also known as ANS Inc. The Lansing-based company is operating in multiple states under assumed names. Often the business adds the name of the state to Workplace Compliance Services, Assumed Name Services or Business Compliance Services to make it appear the company is based in that state. Complaints allege Fata's company sends businesses documents related to state mandated annual corporate filings. The complaints claim the documents make it appear they are from, or affiliated with, the government. Similar complains have been lodged against other businesses linked to Fata, including The LLPS Inc. The BBB has attempted to contact Steven Fata, ANS Inc., and Workplace Compliance Services for comment, but as of 3/28/19 the BBB has not received a response.
This company states they only accept checks as a payment method. - Refund and Exchange Policy
