HR First seamlessly engages as the client’s focused outsourced HR business partner.
In addition to engaging with clients for specific projects and resolving immediate needs, consultants provide ongoing support to proactively identify and alert the client to changes that affect their business, such as in employment law or health and safety.
HR consultants often act as employment law specialists, providing practical HR solutions and legal advice.
Consultants advise on suitable HR procedures and policies, adding the necessary HR expertise to manage and proactively prevent issues arising at work.
In addition, consultants draft policies and procedures as well as other correspondence as required.
Our consultants will also provide support, working with managers and attending and chairing meetings to ensure legal compliance.
We offer an employment compliance audit. We audit the company’s employee records and existing contractual arrangements, then produce a written report with recommendations, actions, and risks.
If a client needs further support in implementing measures to address any issues, we will advise and support them as required.
The audit is beneficial for preparations before the sale of the business and serves as a part of the due diligence process.
We support businesses that need to transfer staff in or out as part of a business sale, contract acquisition, or service provision change under the Transfer of Undertakings and Protection of Employment (TUPE) regulations.
Transfers involving TUPE place legal obligations on both the outgoing and incoming employer.
Prescribed timescales apply. So employers in such transfers should seek advice as early as possible.
For start-ups, engaging staff can be daunting but essential to achieve growth. At HR First, we assist companies starting out by implementing the necessary measures so the business remains nimble but legally compliant.
For larger businesses, the issues that arise tend to be more varied and frequent. HR First adapts as a business grows, offering sophisticated solutions to manage motivation, drive engagement, and focus productivity.
At HR First, we can focus on planning and nurturing talent to develop a pipeline that will future-proof a business and make sense in terms of value and investment.
Using an HR consultancy gives clients greater flexibility and value. Clients can manage the resourcing levels to suit their needs.
For instance, they can address an unforeseen HR need or satisfy the needs of an ad hoc project. Consultants with industry sector experience can be matched with the specific need.
For some projects, to preserve impartiality, separate consultants may be legally required. Using a consultancy HR solution addresses this need.
