No matter which sector you’re a part of, we can offer HR support that ticks all your boxes.
Small businesses can benefit from an HR function just like any other size of business. Whilst there’s no legal obligation for a business of any size to have an HR function, organisations will need to find a way to manage their employment law matters, including hiring and retaining employees, handling leave requests and sickness, health and safety compliance, training and development, payroll and more.
A cost-effective solution is to partner with an HR outsourcing provider like Vero HR. Our HR support for small businesses helps you manage all personnel matters efficiently and accurately as your business grows.
One of the most important HR considerations for a small business is to ensure your organisation is legally compliant. There are various employment laws that your small business will need to adhere to, including drafting accurate and specific employment contracts for your staff and having the required HR policies in place, such as health and safety and grievance policies. Vero HR can help to guide your small business through employment law, minimising compliance risks, not just advising but providing support in those difficult conversations.
The best HR services for a small business will vary depending on the goals and objectives of that business. For small businesses that are experiencing rapid growth, they might benefit most from working with expert recruitment professionals, so they can find the right talent to support that growth. Small businesses that are just starting out might benefit most from gaining professional support in employment law and health and safety, to ensure the business builds on a strong and compliant foundation. Small businesses with a small team might see the most benefit in utilising HR technology, to free up valuable time and resources whilst effectively managing HR admin and processes.
Vero HR will discuss what your business needs to flourish, and we’ll tailor our services to suit your specific requirements.
Technically, yes, you can process your own payroll for a small business. You’ll need to register with the HMRC, agree and keep to pay dates, calculate wages, calculate tax, and calculate and pay any other deductions such as pension or student loan payments. You’ll need to create accurate pay slips and send them to your employees.
Running your own payroll as a small business can be complex and time-consuming. Many small businesses prefer to outsource their payroll to a professional payroll team, as this ensures accuracy across the board and minimises costly errors that can impact employee morale.
To recruit the best talent for your small business, you’ll need to create interesting job posts and advertise them in the right place. You may need to dedicate some time to ensuring your job adverts are seen by the right people, along with conducting thorough interviews.
All of this can be costly and take up a lot of time. Some small businesses might also find that they end up recruiting the wrong people because they didn’t have the time to find the right candidate for the role. Outsourcing your recruitment to an HR service provider like Vero HR can negate these issues. Our in-house recruitment team will be dedicated to finding the right talent for your business and role, and the perfect personality to fit into your team.
Health and safety law applies to all businesses, no matter the size. If you have five or more employees, you are legally required to have a written health and safety policy that is easily available to your staff.
Vero HR can help you to draft and distribute a detailed health and safety policy that’s specific to your business. We can support you in creating a safe working environment for your team and ensure you have the necessary documents in place to meet regulations.
As a small business, retaining your staff is crucial. You want to keep the people who have the right experience, skills, and company loyalty, and minimise the risk of needing to find costly replacements. Employee benefits can be a great way of showing your team how valued they are, but it can be tricky to decide what sort of perks are right for your business to offer whilst keeping within your budget.
Vero HR provides a range of specialist pay and benefits services. Our experts can design cost-effective incentive schemes to help you attract, reward, and retain the best talent.
