TOP 10 HR ISSUES
SMALL AND MEDIUM BUSINESSES FACE
IN HR & EMPLOYMENT LAW
Is your company facing any of these issues? We are here to help you.
1. Compliance with laws and regulations
Failure to fully comply with laws and regulations can lead to severe consequences for a small company, including audits, lawsuits, and even bankruptcy.
2. Employment tribunal support
Getting your HR practices wrong can be a costly mistake to make. For example, in 2021/22, the Employment Tribunal received 630 claims for unfair dismissal, with a maximum award of, in one case, £165,000.
3. Contracts and documentation
Preparing complex contracts can be daunting and time-consuming. In most cases, SMEs pay very high costs to draft compliant agreements.
4. Health and safety
Failure to execute a thorough health and safety program can expose the company to costly lawsuits and injury claims.
5. Employee retention
Keeping employees happy and performing at a high level is significant for a company’s success and comes with many challenges for HR professionals.
6. Bespoke Issues
Employers might face bespoke employee issues related to discrimination, TUPE & redundancy which may lead to expensive employment tribunal claims.
7. Change management
When done poorly, change management can harm performance, staff engagement, and morale. It often falls on the HR department to find ways to ensure that a people-centric transition doesn’t affect productivity and output.
8. Compensation management
Ensuring your total compensation packages are appealing and competitive takes time and money. As a result, small companies will struggle to compete against large corporations and their limitless budgets.
9. Acquiring top talent
Competition for top talent is fierce. Large organizations use every resource to find and hire the best in the industry. Unfortunately, that means that smaller organizations are often at a financial disadvantage when hiring
10. Monitoring productivity and performance
Keeping an eye on productivity and performance involves monitoring key indicators, engaging in candid conversations with managers and employees and acting like a detective to find problems. While part of the job, it’s a time-consuming responsibility and a common HR problem in companies
