We can help you by producing contracts of employment (where none exist) or review and update your contracts so that they are legally compliant, cost- effective and provide sufficient protection to your business in line with employment law changes.

Employee handbooks, policies and HR procedures

Employee handbooks are a great way of providing information to employees on all employment issues, including how the company operates and the standards and procedures in place. As a small business owner, you need to be clear on what your ‘company rules’ are in order to manage your employees well from the beginning. We have lots of experience in tailoring your culture, vision and ways of working to company handbooks, ensuring that all current employment law is also reflected. We also offer management training on the handbook as your managers will be the first point of call for addressing and driving employee performance.

We can offer you support in all of the administration that comes with employing a new starter, for example, reference and background checking, right to work in the UK legal checks as well as the long list that needs to be ticked off before you can start on their induction. We can help you create your inductions too!
