Small Business Support
Do you have less than 250 employees? For businesses that are neither start-ups nor multi-million dollar corporations , it makes sense to pay for services as and when they are required, where possible.
Our support comes without many of the obligations that apply to employed HR staff. This means:
- NO Recruitment Fees
- NO Payroll Tax and Medicare contributions
- NO Holiday/Sick Pay entitlement
- NO Superannuation Contributions
By using our services, you save money and receive the support of a designated, highly qualified consultant on a retained basis. Our services can cover any of the following areas:
Recruitment
Looking for that certain someone? But don’t have the time or the expertise to conduct a thorough recruitment exercise?
We can help your organisation to implement detailed application, selection and interview processes. By implementing stringent interview techniques and ensuring that staff joining your company, are fully aware of their employment conditions and role requirements, we ensure greater staff retention, saving you recruitment costs.
Exit Strategies
Whether an employee leaves a business via resignation, redundancy, dismissal, retirement or some other means, we are able to support the business throughout this process.
Employee Relations
We offer a wide range of services regarding all aspects of employee relations including:
- Enterprise Agreement and other Union negotiations
- Grievance meetings
- Redundancy
- Restructure
- Consultative forums
- Absence management
- Disciplinary meetings
- Managing capability/ poor performance
- Fair Work Act support
We cater for any requirement or staff issue you may have.
Reward and Pay
To ensure you are being fair and consistent in your approach to your employees, and to maintain productivity, motivation and loyalty, we are able to review and make recommendations regarding your reward system. This might include reviewing your current salary structures, benefits packages, benchmarking and market comparison of packages, job evaluation (Hay and Cullen Egan Dell qualified) performance related pay and pay grading systems.
Payroll
We are able to provide advice or project manage the implementation of an outsourced payroll solution, or help you establish your own internal system.
Strategy & Administration
At Gerlan Consulting, we ensure that any systems we put in place are legislatively compliant and relevant to the business needs. This can include document writing (e.g. employment policies, holiday and other absence management systems), assisting with investigatory, disciplinary and appeal meetings, contracts, handbooks and various administration templates.
When using this service, you set the amount of time you require each month from our consultant and we agree a fixed cost. If you do not use your entitlement in a specific month, we can either reduce your bill or accumulate hours for following months.
