The HR Dept Bolton is a local Bolton firm specialising in taking care of small to medium sized businesses throughout the area.

People-problems can be a major distraction for SME’s and larger sized businesses because entrepreneurial people may have a flair for making, doing, creating and turning ideas into a business without having specialist knowledge about staffing and the legal complexities associated with it. Having a go-to HR Dept. at the end of a telephone is the perfect solution.

Karen Pilkington Director of The HR Dept. Bolton has a wealth of experience in different sectors including professional services, commerce, and manufacturing. Karen is a CIPD qualified HR professional who is passionate about assisting business people in navigating the sometimes-complex area of employment law in order to keep them compliant and provide a resolution that is right for the business.

The HR Dept. Bolton takes the time to understand each individual business and provide tailormade advice by focusing on what can be done rather than what cannot. This personal approach rather than an impersonal call centre contact ensures that customer service and satisfaction remains at the forefront of all activities. Having face to face contact is reassuring and allows for the development of long term trust.

Business owners and operators can see how they could benefit from outsourcing their HR function with The HR Dept. with a FREE HR Healthcheck?

The HR Dept. Health check will explore issues including:

Staff performance, and how to deal with this matter.

• Targets and attainment.
• Attendance and Timekeeping, an issue that needs to be managed.
• Involvement, do your staff take ‘ownership’ and act in the best interests of the firm? If not, why not?
• Motivation and appraisals,
• Rewards and remunerations.
• Training and Development.
• Recruitment, discipline, and redundancy.

The law states that an employee must be given a statement of terms and conditions of employment within 8 weeks of starting. Therefore, it’s important that these meet the business needs as well as being legally compliant. The HR Dept. will provide a free HR health check on all current contracts of employment and employee handbooks. If required, they can then provide you with terms and conditions of employment for all types of employees and casual staff.

• Performance Management
• Recruitment
