In any company, your employees are your biggest asset, and evaluating employees effectively is key to their management and development.
An effective appraisal system is vital if employees are to be given the opportunity to reach their full potential and identify their own training and development needs. At Workplace Law, we understand that the overriding objective of appraisal systems is not to blame, reward or praise, but to develop the individual.
In instances when staff are disciplined or dismissed, having a comprehensive performance management scheme in place can provide evidence that you have supported and developed as required, thereby fulfilling your legal obligations.
Our team can work with your business to review, redesign and implement performance management (appraisal) systems that work with your business, rather than become a form filling exercise.
Workplace Law’s experienced HR consultants will analyse your organisation’s initial requirements. As part of our pragmatic approach, we will work closely with you to develop and implement a system for performance management that is tailored to your company.
The resulting system will allow you to optimise employee performance and maintain a cohesive fit between your company and the employee’s personal objectives.
Bespoke training for appraisers and appraisees can also be delivered in line with your requirements.
All of our HR professionals have 20+ years of hands on experience of working in every sector in small, medium and large organisations. Our HR professionals bring this unique knowledge and experience to provide support and project management to ensure the best fit for your organisation, best practice and commercial advice with real life experiences.
"In 2009 Chaps Ltd recognised that it needed to improve its health and safety systems. We changed our Health and Safety consultants to Workplace Law in order to give us a fresh approach towards our management of health and safety and to gain specialist construction advice.
"By using their expertise and experience Simon and Maria have guided us into developing a health and safety system that has achieved CHAS accreditation and given our customers and principle contractor’s confidence in our management of health and safety. They have always been available to offer advice when needed and to provide independent site inspections and audits which are often required by our customers.
"Both Simon and Maria continue to support Chaps Ltd and have become an important, integral part of our Health and Safety Management System."
Suzanne Jackson, HR Director, Emprise:
“Workplace Law has made a difference to the quality of the service we can provide to our staff. And because of the customised service from Workplace Law, the costs have come down.
“We’re now into the second year and we’re pleased with the level of service which is always turned around quickly with any queries being answered straight away.”
Martyn Ball, Head of HR at Akkeron Hotels:
“It’s not just telephone advice that we’ve come to rely on, Workplace Law consultants are also happy to attend our meetings in person and Jayn Bond has regular catch ups with us to discuss any HR related issues. Working with people you can trust is important to me and I value the personal relationship that we have developed with the team at Workplace Law.”
“The accreditation enhances our client services, evidences the robustness of our processes and demonstrates the passion and professionalism of our staff on every level.
“The exceptional support and input from the team at Workplace Law and in particular Simon Toseland, has ensured that the highest safety standards have been implemented and these are to be continually assessed and tested externally."
