Frequently Asked Questions

Do small businesses really need HR support?

You don’t need a large HR department to benefit from good HR support. As your business grows, having an experienced HR consultant to turn to can help you deal with people issues, manage risk and put the right processes in place. You can get support when you need it, without the cost of employing a full-time HR manager.

What does an HR consultant do for a small business?

An HR consultant provides practical advice and hands-on support with the people side of running your business. This can include employment contracts and policies, employee relations, performance issues, absence, HR compliance and day-to-day HR advice. We work alongside business owners and managers to provide the support they need, without creating unnecessary bureaucracy. Find out more about HR Support & Consultancy.

Can you help with a specific HR issue, or do we need ongoing support?

Both. You might need help with a particular employee situation, a contract or policy, or simply want advice before deciding what to do next. We can also provide ongoing HR support for businesses that want someone they can turn to regularly. Our approach is flexible, so you get the level of support that makes sense for your business.

What HR support does a growing business need?

As your team grows, managing people can become more time-consuming and more complicated. You may need better contracts and policies, support with employee relations, help managing performance or a review of your HR processes. We can help you identify what needs attention and put practical HR foundations in place as your business develops. Explore our HR Policies, Contracts & Documentation or HR Compliance, Strategy & Audits.

When should a small business get help with an employee problem?

You don’t have to wait until a situation becomes serious. If you’re dealing with an underperforming employee, a difficult conversation, absence, a grievance or a disciplinary issue, getting advice early can help you understand your options and deal with the situation properly. See our Employment Law & Employee Relations support.
