HR Advice for Small Business

by | Blog

A lot of people make the mistake of thinking that HR advice for small business is unnecessary. However, small businesses face a lot of demands when growing their company and can benefit from support from a HR Consultant. No matter the size of your company, hiring and managing your employees is a big responsibility. In addition, it’s important you find the correct support.

 

There’s a lot of challenges that comes with being a small business. This includes hiring, redundancy, following employment legislation, all while growing your business. With limited resources, hiring an in-house HR expert can be expensive. In addition, working with an outsourced HR company can be a great solution as you’re able to gain support from a team of experts at an affordable price. Here’s what you should consider if you are thinking about outsourcing HR.

 

Compliance

Having HR advice for small business from a HR expert ensures your company is fully compliant and following current UK legislation. This can ensure you are protected from potential employment tribunals in the future. According to UK law, employers are legally required to have disciplinary, grievance, and dismissal policies in place. An outsourced HR company will ensure all of your documents and policies are up to date and comply with current legislation. If you don’t have these policies in place, a HR consultant can complete this for you so all you have to worry about is growing your business.

 

Whether you need support with payroll, personnel files, or HR Administration, a HR company ensure this is managed correctly.

 

On-boarding

In order to retain good employees, it’s important you have an outstanding on-boarding strategy in place. The first weeks and months in a new job is crucial as staff are getting to know the business and deciding if they like it. This is your chance to show them why your business is the best place to work. We’ve helped many of our clients ensure they are putting the right steps in place during and after the on-boarding process.

 

As part of HR advice for small business, HR experts will also help you to create an employee handbook. This allows you to stay compliant and set expectations from day one. An employee handbook should include company values, policies, disciplinary procedures, and much more.
