HR Support and advice
At People Business we offer our support and advice in two ways. One is on a retained basis with a monthly number of hours or days and the other is on an ad hoc basis where clients work with us on a pay-as-you-go model. It depends on the situation and the client as to which approach is most appropriate for them.
Retained services
Unlike an off-the-shelf HR service, we take the time to develop an understanding of your people requirements, your key aims and goals. Through this consultation process we will be able to tailor a retained service that is appropriate for your business.
Our retained services enable you to access a team of specialist HR consultants who will be fully conversant with your support needs, as well as providing you with some document ‘essentials’, on-hand advice and guidance for all your HR queries, plus access to a range of specialist performance, learning and development expertise – should you need it.
We like to begin with an HR audit of your organisation and people practices so we can gain an understanding of your key priorities. We will then scope out the right level of service (remote vs. face-to face) which best meets your needs according to the complexity of the projects we undertake for you.
As part of our retained HR service, we will update you regularly with practical information and keep you informed of recent policy and employment law developments. We also provide policy updates to ensure that, at all times, your policies and practices meet the standards of current employment law legislation. The other advantage of a retained service is that any separate project work commissioned is at a reduced rate.
Ad hoc services
People Business also offer our HR services on an ad hoc basis, where clients do not sign up to a regular monthly amount of consultant time, but work with us as and when we’re needed. Sometimes clients will come to us for a specific requirement (e.g. grievance, investigation or handbook and policy work) but become a retained client as they experience the high-level of support they receive.
PEOPLE BUSINESS CAN SUPPORT AND ADVISE YOUR ORGANISATION
Why us?
Whether it’s providing consultancy across the entire HR spectrum or working with you on just one focused project (e.g. a redundancy programme), we always offer practical support in a professional but relaxed way to help you achieve the best possible results.
Outsourcing your HR to People Business or just calling on us for advice, means you have access to expertise, experience and available resource that you may not have in-house. And our flexible approach will ensure we provide you with a tailored solution to suit your time-frame and budget.
Who are we?
At People Business, we have a team of experienced HR Consultants who can help you with a range of HR services. Whether you’re looking to outsource your HR completely or just need help with a one off project, our highly qualified and knowledgeable HR specialists will help you to achieve your business goals.
As former HR Directors, Managers and Heads of Department, we believe in encouraging our clients to establish the right people practices, so that you can focus on growing and developing your businesses.
