Why HR Protection Matters
For UK small businesses, employment law is complex and constantly changing, and without the right support that offers your HR protection, you face a higher risk of disputes, tribunals, and reputational damage. The average employment tribunal costs £8,500 in legal fees alone—and this doesn't include management time, stress, and the impact on your business's good name.
It makes sense to prevent problems before they start. Our HR Protect plan is essentially a professional HR department on tap: it helps you stay compliant with UK employment law, avoid costly mistakes, and handle disciplinaries, grievances, sickness and performance issues with confidence.
With HR Protect you can quickly sense-check decisions before you act, get step-by-step guidance on the right process to follow, and put fair policies in place so staff know where they stand, leading to fewer disputes, a more motivated and productive team, and a simple, cost-effective way to protect and grow your business.
Who This Is For
Growing Businesses (5-50 Employees)
You've reached the stage where you can't manage HR on the side of your desk anymore. You need contracts, policies, and processes in place, but you're not ready for a full-time HR person. You're making your first hires or dealing with your first employee issue and realise you need professional support to get it right.
Businesses Facing Employee Issues
You're dealing with performance issues, grievances, or potential disciplinary situations and need expert guidance to handle them fairly and legally. Perhaps you've received a tribunal claim or complaint and need immediate support to manage the situation and protect your business.
Businesses That Need HR Foundation
Your HR documentation is outdated, incomplete, or non-existent. You know you need proper contracts, handbooks, and policies but don't have the time or expertise to create them. You want peace of mind that your HR is compliant, professional, and won't expose you to unnecessary risk.

Real Examples
Policy Overhaul for Growing Tech Company
The Challenge
A tech company with 25 employees had grown rapidly but was still using generic contract templates downloaded from the internet. They faced an employee dispute that exposed gaps in their documentation.
Our Solution
We conducted a full HR audit and created bespoke contracts, employee handbook, and essential policies tailored to their business, all implemented within 4 weeks.
The Outcome
The dispute was resolved fairly without legal action. The business now has a solid HR foundation and has since grown to 40 employees without further issues.
Grievance Management for Retail Business
The Challenge
A retail business with 15 employees received a formal grievance against a senior manager for alleged bullying. They'd never dealt with this before and were worried about legal implications.
Our Solution
We guided them through the formal grievance process, conducted impartial investigations, and helped mediate a resolution that addressed the employee's concerns while protecting the business.
The Outcome
The situation was resolved with both parties satisfied. The manager received coaching, the employee stayed with the business, and trust was maintained across the team.
Recruitment Support for Hospitality Business
The Challenge
A hospitality business needed to hire 8 new staff members for peak season but the owner was overwhelmed managing existing operations while trying to recruit, screen, and onboard new people.
Our Solution
We managed the entire recruitment process: writing job descriptions, posting adverts, screening applications, conducting interviews, and handling all pre-employment checks and contracts.
The Outcome
All 8 roles filled within 3 weeks, fully compliant with right-to-work checks. The owner saved 40+ hours of time and could focus on preparing for peak season while we handled HR.
