As an organisation we work to ensure that you are in the best position to ‘Control Your Business’ providing immediate support and advice when and where you need it allowing you more time to concentrate on what you do best.
We ensure that you have up to date contracts and employee handbooks, policies and procedures or even recruitment practices taking special care during the employment of overseas workers – making sure that they fit with the needs of your business, providing tailored solutions that are up to date to comply with the ever changing provisions of Employment Legislation.
A good member of staff is an asset – a poor employee is a pitfall that needs to be managed; as such we assist in performance management, absence from work, long-term or persistent intermittent absences, which have such a negative impact on your business and the morale of your workers, reducing absence and increasing your return on your investments. We provide support and guidance through the grievance process or disciplinary, through to dismissal.
When required, we are there to support you when there are changes to the organisation, during growth and acquisitions or if the market dictates, during redundancies or short-time working or lay-off.
Our flexible approach provides assistance as and when you need it. A one off situation or long term support and guidance and if the worst case scenario arises, we even assist in the preparation of documentation in the event of an Employment Tribunal.
Contact us now to discuss your needs; we will meet with you and during our initial free of charge meeting we will discuss what we can do to help you now and how our inexpensive solutions are able to assist you and your company moving forward.
Contact me now to arrange a meeting and a brew - mine is a tea, white and no sugar!
