Case Study 1

The Covid pandemic has hit the revenue stream of a Bristol based jewellery shop hard.

As a result, it was unable to retain all four employees when it was to due to reopen and when the Government furlough scheme ended.

As a small business, it needed practical, timely and affordable HR guidance on how to reduce its employee headcount. The business was keen to treat all employees properly and give them clarity as soon as possible.

HR Resolve discussed the situation with the employer during a free consultation.

We enabled the business to take the correct employment action required, providing all the legally required documentation. 

The firm was able to reduce its headcount fairly, within a short time-frame. It meant it could now re-open with less overheads and a reduced payroll. 

It has the confidence to move forward in this challenging new climate, continuing as a profitable and viable business.

Case Study 2

A small business based in Reading was having persistent performance-related problems with one of its employees.

HR Resolve offered the employer a free consultation and outlined the most suitable approach to handle the problem.

We ensured that the business was complying with employment law.

We provided guidance and documentation to free up the employer while we resolved the employee matter.

We then introduced measures to help bring everything to a satisfactory conclusion for both sides.

The business no longer has to deal with the uncertainty and disruption caused by the employee’s under-performance. 

HR Resolve helped the business end the employment contract fairly, without any added repercussions.

As a result, the business could move forward and rehire a more suitably qualified employee, continuing its business operations smoothly.
