If you already have a HR team, Primed is still suitable for you. Our team can help free up the time of your HR Director and HR managers, supporting them with day-to-day HR enquiries, as well as more complex HR issues, giving your HR team more time to concentrate on bigger picture strategic HR projects.

Having dealt with many clients in a wide range of industries, we see all sorts of HR enquiries and have the breadth and depth of experience to advise on all types of HR matters. This includes issues that might be a little out of the ordinary, or that your managers feel uncomfortable managing because they’ve never had to deal with the type of issue before.

Our advice and guidance can also help your managers improve their decision making and people management skills.

And if your HR issue is complex and requires input from an employment lawyer, we have a team of employment lawyers on hand.

Employment law changes frequently – when was the last time you had your employment contracts reviewed? Did you draft the contracts yourself or did you download them for free from somewhere on the internet?

As part of our onboarding process, we will review your existing employment contracts to make sure they’re fit for purpose. We’ll either make suggestions of how they can be improved to make them water-tight, or issue you with new ones. We then review your contracts annually, so you know you’ve covered your legal requirements and protected your business from risk.

Yes, a dedicated support team means never having to repeat yourself – it opens the door to proactive interventions, helping you reach the right outcome quickly, rather than constant firefighting or generic form filling exercises.

You won’t be passed around a call centre for hours on end having to explain your issue multiple times.  We have a sophisticated case management system where phone notes, emails and other relevant documents are saved, meaning any member of our friendly team will be able to pick up and deal with your enquiry quickly.

Yes, as part of our onboarding process, we’ll ask you to provide us with an authorised user list.

You can choose who can access our system and what level of advice they can access. We’ll always ask who’s calling and we’ll check if they’re authorised to seek advice from us.

Yes, human resources can be outsourced and is often a more cost-effective way of managing your HR than recruiting internally. There are a variety of different things you can outsource such as payroll, employee relations and recruitment to name a few.
