Advice Line
Our advice line service gives your managers direct access to our team of expert HR advisers – by telephone or online. Our experts will work within your company’s own policies and processes and offer managers’ support from the moment they open a case, to the moment it’s resolved.
Project Support
If you have a short-term requirement that must be delivered at pace, but lack the in-house resource to support the change, our skilled professionals can help. From people change processes, including redundancy, restructure and varying the T&Cs of the employment contract, to drafting and reviewing documentation and providing high volume HR admin support, we can help.
Policy and Document Services
If your suite of policies is out-of-date, they could be doing your organisation more harm than good. Our approach to HR policy review follows a three-step process:
- Understanding your needs
- Creating, rewriting and harmonising your policies, and if needed,
- Delivering extra support to roll out your new policy suite across your organisation – including training, organisation-wide communications, supporting documents, a bespoke knowledge portal website, maintenance and analytics.
Campaign Interventions
Manage absenteeism – Keep your employees at work with confident, proactive management. Our absence management experts will proactively work with individual managers to build a structured improvement plan – one that incorporates your organisation’s policies and best practice – to ensure your employee is getting the support they need to get back to work.
Performance Management – Coach your managers to execute quality and timely interventions with underperforming employees, effectively and consistently. Achieve increased productivity across the workforce and more capable and confident managers, to provide a solid platform for stronger, longer-term organisational growth.
HR Health Check
Most HR leaders recognise they need to transform, whether it’s a desire to move from being a supporting operational function to one that drives business value, or internal pressures forcing the change. How do you know where to focus first?
The AdviserPlus health check enables leaders to improve the performance of their HR function by identifying the areas of improvement that will give you the greatest return and support your progression to becoming a ‘business driven’ HR function.
