Attracting and recruiting staff that will drive your business forward is a high priority for any business looking to grow.

Employee turnover is a costly challenge, so creating an appealing workplace culture and offering opportunities for development can be key to establishing a motivated and dedicated workforce.

We can point you in the right direction for HR, people and skills support. Whether you’re a small business looking for HR support or a startup wanting to recruit an employee, our experts can provide you with the help and advice you need.

We provide advice and support on:

● Recruiting staff and expanding your workforce.
Information and guidance to support you to employ someone to work for you.

● Employee training and development.
Providing skills support for employees to train and develop their workforce is key to retaining talent and nurturing business growth.

● Employee rights and responsibilities.
Employees of a company or individual are entitled to statutory employment rights at work – make sure you know what they are.

● Your legal obligations.
Some HR policies are required by law, even for small businesses. Having a well-developed and clearly written HR policy creates a positive work culture and minimises legal risk.

Certain aspects of HR can be a daunting prospect for businesses, with serious consequences for getting things wrong.

Developing the skills and knowledge required to handle things properly takes time – so whether you’re starting a new business or growing an existing one and facing new personnel challenges, make sure you’re getting the right support and advice.
