People Solutions Empowering SMEs With Expert HR Solutions & Compliance Excellence
How can I assist you today?
Have you decided to introduce an HR department for the first time? Not sure where to start? I help you put foundational HR systems into place that grow and expand with your business.
I ensure that your Company Policies and Procedures and Employment Contracts are compliant with current legislation and able to stand up to Department Of Labour inspection. Do you know that non-compliance may result in costly fines?
Using the services of an HR Consultant on an “as-need basis” is more cost-effective than the cost of employing a permanent employee.
I come with more than 25 years of HR and Payroll experience across numerous industries to support your business.
Do you face any of these challenges?
Performance Issues
Employees may not perform for various reasons, and these may include:
- inexperience and a lack of training,
- or the employee doesn't understand their role's contribution to company goals,
- or there maybe personal issues affecting their ability to perform at that time.
Conflict Resolution
Many line managers struggle with handling conflict-related issues. For example, 2 employees on the team are always at loggerheads and disrupt the rest of the team. Both employees have strong personalities and there always needs to be a winner. The impact of their negative behaviour on the team may not enter their minds as their egos reign. Furthermore, these employees could be high-performing individuals and the quality of their work is above average; and in here lies the challenge for the manager.
If you don't yet have a formal HR Department with your organisation, have you considered the following?
- Where are the confidential records for your employees being kept? Who has access to them? Are these practices in accordance with POPIA?
- Who handles the induction of new staff?
- Do Company policies and procedures exist?
- Do your managers have access to Company policies and procedures to guide them in responding to their employees HR related queries?
- If these documents don’t exist, how do your employees and managers know what is expected of them in following certain procedures, for example, applying for annual leave or sick leave or what is regarded as acceptable communication?
- In the absence of HR, do you manage the HR-related queries internally? If so, how does this impact your business time?
