Outsourced HR

For many businesses employing a full time HR expert isn’t viable and so the responsibility falls to the owner of the business. When things are working well this doesn’t cause too many problems, but when things go wrong this can create significant additional work as well as the risk of getting something wrong. Our outsourced HR service gives you peace of mind and access to impartial, expert advice without the financial burden.

We can work on a project basis to manage a specific piece of work such as restructuring or redundancy or deal with a particular issue that has arisen, or for hands on support our retained services give you added peace of mind that we are just a phone call away.

Equality, Diversity & Inclusivity Training

Equality, Diversity, and Inclusivity is something everyone needs to be considerate of nowadays. Its not easy for everybody, but it is something that deep rooted within out values at Colmers HR. Ryan’s experience within this sector allows for a simple approach for a traditionally difficult subject.

EDI [Equality, Diversity, and Inclusivity] doesn’t require a big budget. There are lots of small changes that can be made within your company to ensure you are doing what you can. The key to a subject like this is getting the correct information from the right people – Something that Colmers HR is proud to say that we are.

DISC Profiling

DISC is a psychometric behavioural tool developed in the 1920’s that can help your people to understand their own behavioural style and those of others around them. This understanding and using the principles around them enable them to improve their relationships with each other as well as your customers.

As associates of DISCSimple we have used this tool successfully with many of our clients in a wide range of situations including strengthening the recruitment process, resolving friction or poor communication between team members or across different departments as well as talent development and retention.

HR Software

We provide a cloud-based HR platform to all of our retained clients enabling them to keep their HR records including contracts, policies and procedures, 1-2-1 and performance review information together in one place, securely and in line with GDPR legislation. The system also manages holiday requests and tracks holiday entitlements and provides support to make HR choices with interactive decision- making tools and a suite of templates to use.

You don’t need to be a retained client to be able to use the software as we can offer stand-alone licences should they be required along with help in getting everything set up.

Frequently Asked Questions

The following are just a few of the questions we regularly get asked by our clients. If you cannot find the answer you are looking for, give us a call on 01454 538 888 and we will be happy to help.

Do I have to sign up for monthly support?

No. We can work on a project or retained basis, whatever works best for you. Some clients prefer the peace of mind of having us at the end of the phone but others simply bring us in to provide support for a particular problem or piece of work.

I only have a small business, do I really need HR support?

No matter what size business you have, employing and managing people takes time and there are a number of things that can go wrong. Having practical HR support to help guide you, can save both time and money and give you peace of mind that you are doing the best for your people and your business.

Can I just get a HR Healthcheck?

Yes, we provide our HR Healthcheck as a stand alone service. For many businesses it confirms that everything is OK and gives them that added peace of mind. If there’s something that needs addressing we can help, or you can sort it yourselves in-house. The choice is yours.

We already have in house HR . Can we still work with you?

Yes we can work alongside your existing HR team to provide more specialist support on areas such as DISC profiling.

We are also often brought in to manage or support more difficult projects such as redundancies where we can provide an independent, impartial view to decision making. We have also found that employees often feel more comfortable talking openly to someone not emotionally invested in the business or outcome.

How does DISC Profiling work?

The way that we use DISC profiling within your business will very much depend on what outcomes you are looking to achieve and we will discuss that with you beforehand.

Generally however, the process works along the following lines:

Each individual completes a DISC profile.
They receive a personal report which gives them an assessment of their behavioural style along with information about all of the different styles.
There is a follow up conversation with us to discuss the results and provide support in using them to effect change.

Social Enterprise

I wanted to say a special thank you to you for the gift of having you with us tonight. Your input is invaluable and your soft and gentle way of steering us forward was a particular blessing.

We continue to be impressed by the seemingly effortless support we receive from Colmers HR. With a keen eye for detail and a thorough understanding of the needs of our business, we recommend them without hesitation.

The proactive support we receive from Chris is fantastic, most importantly it is relevant and practical for the size of the business we are.

Having previously had support from HR companies where you are just a number and everything is templated, Chris and the team are a breath of fresh air and I would recommend them to any business looking to work with a HR partner.
