Initial Consultation & Health Check
A face to face meeting to introduce ourselves, discuss your business and any HR issues being faced. Following this meeting we will complete a complementary Hummingbird HR Services health check to identify any potential areas of focus. We will produce a RAG report to help highlight the areas of your business which need immediate attention. If further work is recommended then we will provide an estimate to support that. There is no obligation and completing the health-check is really our first investment in understanding your business. After the health-check we will recommend further follow-up meetings on either a monthly, quarterly or six monthly basis, to continue to maintain contact and help support on people related issues. If you need help in the intervening period then get in touch, we will charge for additional support agreed, always giving you an estimate for what that would be.
