BUSINESS OBJECTIVES ACHIEVED
Employees are the centre of any business and developing a people strategy or a people focus can drive business performance through the development of an engaged team of people all working together.
Forbes HR Consultancy aims to offer clients support in managing and developing their businesses with people orientated projects.
Working with HR Teams and/or Leaders to offer support on projects, create bespoke programmes or lead business wide diagnostics on a wide range of topics including the following:
Workplace Support
From time to time, you may find it necessary or appropriate to appoint external, impartial individuals to investigate grievances or disciplinaries or conduct formal hearings or appeals. At Forbes our HR consultancy and employment team can conduct such investigations and hearings and a separate member of the team can also provide independent legal advice on the process as well as strategic advice.
Examples of independent investigations that have been carried out by our HR Consultancy team include:
Interim Support
Our HR consultancy service can also provide interim HR services for business that need additional resource support, either during transition periods, maternity leave or during recruitment periods.
For example, we have recently undertaken interim support for case management issues for long term absence, misconduct investigations and grievance investigations.
We can provide individual recruitment and onboarding support for new roles and specific appointments, including those requiring specialist Safer Recruitment educational requirements.
Mediation Services
Conflicts at work or workplace disputes can have a serious and detrimental effect on our people, teams, business and organisational effectiveness and performance.
Left unchecked, they can spiral and involve a wider cohort of team members or departments.
Mediation can be an ideal tool to bring about improved workplace resolutions and individual solutions.
Quicker and less costly than other dispute resolution methods, mediation is aimed at enabling longer lasting workplace relationships using collaborative communications. Often used as a precursor to or following a grievance procedure to build on future focused outcomes for all parties.
For more information or to discuss a particular issue and its suitability for mediation, contact our HR Consultancy for information about our accredited mediation services.
Audits
For organisations who wish to verify their existing policies and procedures and ensure legal compliance, Forbes HR Consultancy can provide an objective review of current policy and practice across the organisation and provide resulting recommendations.
Getting such processes right is critical and our team prides itself on its pragmatic and professional approach using CIPD accredited methodology.
Our team can also assist clients with holding meeting with employees during consultation processes whether during restructuring and redundancy exercises or transfers of employees under TUPE.
