HR Services

Effective HR = supported employee and employer

How engaged is your workforce?

There are many contributing factors to employee engagement which begin as early as onboarding. A well onboarded employee will be actively engaged in the company goals and will be able to voice their concerns or provide suggestions. It is also in the company’s best interest to align engagement practices and corporate components as they both will not work positively without the other. If these aren’t aligned it can lead to high turnover of employees, high absences, negative company branding and low overall business performance.

This is just one aspect F2O can support with. We have been an outsourced HR provider for over 20 years and have a range of experience and skills that we provide to all our customers. We can tailor our service to your needs.

Advantages of outsourcing HR

Human resources is an important but complex function for any company. Some companies don’t have enough resources to set up an in-house HR department and decide to outsource some HR functions. One of the biggest advantages to outsourcing HR functions is the fact it can reduce cost. An in-house HR department can result in a high cost compared to a outsourced company providing similar functions.

Efficiency – you can focus on your core business needs while we deal with your HR processes. We pride ourselves in dealing with matters promptly and you will always have a point of contact at F2O.

Management resources – we understand that management time alone is invaluable and dealing with HR topics can pull them away from other important business needs. We can take over this stress effectively.

Compliance – legislation and regulations can change any time and can be hard to keep track of. We take this on as our responsibility which will keep you compliant and up to date. We will ensure policies are fair, legal and clear. This will minimise the risk of fines, mistakes and expensive claims.
