HR Health Checks

We conduct a thorough review of your current people related practices covering joining, working and leaving. The review includes looking at your policies, and procedures as well as collecting information and opinions to identify needs, and areas of potential risk.

A HR health check will:

• Review your current working practices to identify significant gaps or areas for improvement in your employment practices and processes
• Provide feedback on your HR policies and procedures ensuring they are compliant with current legislation and best practice and evaluate the organisational risk to potential employment related claims
• Assess the reality of your policies against day to day actions

• Analyse your communication methods and where appropriate, gain employee feedback
• Measure morale and motivation
• Highlight areas for improvement and make recommendations to impact the overall organisational effectiveness

Interviews can either be conducted face to face, or via an on-line questionnaire or a combination.

HR Health Checks also ensure your employment policies, procedures and contracts are clear, lawful and up-to-date.

Business Change Consulting

We can provide support, advice and project management for large scale organisational restructuring and change initiatives.

Successful businesses are constantly reviewing their processes and practices to remain financially viable and ahead of their competitors. On occasions, this means restructuring teams, departments or divisions. This can be a simple task ranging from ensuring that the right skills are in the right place, to a complete re-organisation which may require recruiting or developing new skills, redeployment of existing staff or in some cases, redundancy. We recognise that this can be difficult and we can provide a tailored programme to meet the needs of your business and your people.
