Tenon HR Consultancy
HR Advice and Support
Where clients do not have a dedicated HR function or where they have an inexperienced in-house team, we can provide the support and backup required to keep HR policies, processes and administrative systems up to date as well as offering a level of ongoing support and guidance that can be individually tailored to meet the specific HR Support needs of the organisation.
Companies looking for a packaged solution offering access to a professional employment advice centre, an insurance backed litigation service and an on-line documentation and information store will be attracted by Tenon Employer Protect which is delivered by our FSA authorised partner, Employment Services Partnership, for a low, fixed monthly cost.
We have also developed a range of complementary and additional services that together provide a total HR service capable of meeting all the operational and administrative needs of our clients. We have a team of consultants with detailed knowledge of employment legislation and practical experience of helping clients manage positively and fairly within the law and of setting up robust HR practices and procedures.
