“I’m spending too much time on this” - 5 things you need to consider when outsourcing your HR.
When executed correctly, it's a smart strategy that can significantly reduce costs and streamline operations.
Yet, many businesses revert to in-house HR and thrust HR on an untrained leader, normally after encountering obstacles that could have been avoided.
Here's how to sidestep these common pitfalls effectively:
1. Evaluate Beyond Cost
While it’s tempting to choose the cheapest option:
📋 Prioritise Quality: Invest in a provider that offers high-quality services even if they come at a higher cost.
2. Consider Cultural Fit
Your HR partner will influence your workplace culture, so:
📋 Align Values: Ensure the HR provider shares and supports your company’s values and culture.
3. Plan for Growth
Scalability is essential for long-term relationships:
📋 Seek Flexibility: Choose an HR firm that can grow and adapt to your business needs.
4. Review Track Record
Experience matters:
📋 Check Experience: Look for a provider with a proven track record in your industry and with companies of similar size.
5. Set Clear Success Metrics
Clear expectations lead to clear outcomes:
📋 Define Metrics: Establish what success looks like from the start to ensure measurable results.
If any of these points hit home, don’t worry—these are common pitfalls, and they are avoidable with the right approach.
At Order Employment Services (OES), we specialise in providing tailored HR solutions that cover everything from HR health checks, redundancy consultation and training all while ensuring compliance with current laws and best practices.
📌 Side note: We're not just about filling a role, we’re about enhancing your entire business operation by being your dedicated partner.

Most companies don’t need “engaged employees”.
They need a reliable process to prevent burnout. Take mine…
1. Assessing the Work Environment
Kick things off by:
→ Evaluating Workloads: Ensure tasks match individual capacities.
→ Surveying Employee Satisfaction: Identify improvement areas through regular feedback.
→ Identifying Stress Points: Use anonymous surveys to discover common stress triggers.
These steps are essential for making informed changes that reduce stress and boost morale.
—
2. Redefining Roles and Responsibilities
Empowerment is key:
→ Enhancing Job Autonomy: Allow more control over work processes.
→ Encouraging Creative Input: Let team members propose innovations.
→Clarifying Roles: Ensure clarity in responsibilities and contributions.
—
3. Establishing Recognition and Rewards Systems
Keep motivation high:
→ Implement Regular Recognition: Set up a consistent reward system.
→ Tailor Rewards: Match incentives with individual motivations.
→ Celebrate Milestones: Recognise both small and significant achievements.
—
4. Continuous Training and Support
Build a supportive framework:
→ Leadership Training: Support managers to spot and address burnout signs.
→ Mental Health Resources: Provide tools for stress management.
→ Career Development Plans: Offer clear advancement paths to enhance engagement.
—
5. Implementing this Framework
To execute this plan:
→ Start Small: Gradually introduce changes and measure their impact.
→ Monitor Progress: Regularly review strategy effectiveness and stay open to feedback.
→ Adjust Based on Feedback: Continually refine your strategies based on employee input.
—
This is just the tip of the iceberg to significantly enhancing employee satisfaction, retention, and overall company performance.

Question: How would you rate your employee engagement? If you have to think about the answer to that, it’s probably not great.
Here’s how we diagnosed and improved employee engagement for one of our clients…
→Identifying the Problem: Our client came to us unsure about their team's level of engagement. After some probing, it was clear they had a big problem on their hands – their employees were not very motivated or happy.
→Deep Dive Analysis: We conducted a thorough assessment and discovered that the lack of engagement was negatively affecting several key areas.
Productivity was down, staff turnover was high, and overall morale was low.
This was costing the organisation more than only their peace of mind.
→Strategic Revamp: Realising the gravity of the situation, we knew a complete overhaul was necessary.
We started from scratch, aiming to build a new foundation of employee engagement that was strong and sustainable.
→ Proactive Engagement Initiatives: We encouraged the client to adopt a more proactive approach in soliciting feedback.
This wasn't only about collecting surveys or holding occasional meetings. It was about creating an ongoing, open dialogue between employees and management.
→ Implementing Feedback: More importantly, we emphasised the need for the client to actively respond to the feedback.
This meant making real changes based on what employees were saying, showing them that their voices were heard and valued.
→ Visible Improvements: These changes made a noticeable difference. The workplace become more dynamic, responsive, and ultimately a happier environment.
Employees felt more connected to their work and to each other, which reflected in their improved performance and reduced turnover rates.
→ Continued Success: The transformation didn't only bring temporary relief; it set the company on a new trajectory of success and stability.
Employee engagement became a cornerstone of their corporate culture.

How many times have you spent ages recruiting a new hire - only for the mask to slip once they join your team?
Recruitment can be a pretty time consuming process for yourself and your team.
The recruitment process can also be extremely expensive and can significantly cut into your bottom line
The extended length of your recruitment process means you miss out on the top talent.
Around a third of new hires quit within six months - meaning that you have to go through the whole thing again!
What if I told you that there’s a better way?
Most of the issues mentioned here can be eliminated by making the switch from traditional recruitment to the “work audition”.
With this innovative model, potential new hires spend a day working on a real project with their prospective team.
This works on a few different levels:
Assessing the candidates' skillset
Allows you to gauge how well the candidate gels with the team
Deeply engages the candidate in the company culture from the word go
I suggested this strategy to one of our clients and it innovated the way they make new hires.
The outcome:
✏️ Better Fit: They observed improved candidate-job alignment.
✏️ Reduced Turnover: They noticed a drop in early resignations.
✏️ Efficient Hiring: They achieved faster hiring with fewer interviews.
✏️ Enhanced Branding: They enhanced their reputation for careful hiring.
If traditional recruitment methods feel like you are walking through treacle and are ineffective, I recommend trying this approach.
I hope this helps.

Have you ever wondered why some teams perform better than others? The answer might surprise you.
📈 In my early days as a manager, I witnessed first-hand the impact of not having a robust performance management system. Like many enthusiastic leaders, I was focused on setting ambitious goals and driving my team towards grand visions. However, despite our high aspirations, performance wavered and motivation dipped during tough phases.
This was a wake-up call. It became clear that without a solid framework to support and guide employees—providing clear directions and regular feedback—achieving consistent performance was nearly impossible. We were only as strong as our weakest process.
🚀 To turn things around, we implemented a structured performance management system. This wasn't just about tracking metrics but creating a culture where feedback and continuous improvement were at the heart of our operations. We defined clear, achievable objectives for each team member and aligned them with our overall business goals.
Regular check-ins and real-time adjustments became our norm. The result? A resilient team that could sustain high performance and tackle challenges head-on, proving that robust systems are the backbone of any successful organisation.
👥 Don’t let your team's potential be dampened by inadequate systems. For more insights on building a resilient performance management framework that supports and sustains high performance, follow .co.uk on Instagram. Let’s work our way through the maze of Hazy HR together and build teams that thrive, no matter the pressure!
Ever wondered why some teams seem to thrive under pressure while others crumble?
Imagine this: Your company finally lands that huge deal—a moment of triumph swiftly clouded by the realisation that your team isn’t prepared to handle the workload.
The culprit? A weak onboarding system. While aspirations spark our drive, it's the robust systems behind the scenes that uphold performance and stability. Without a solid foundation, even the best teams can find themselves battling avoidable setbacks, reverting to their lowest point of failure when the heat is on.
We turned this challenge on its head by overhauling our onboarding process, transforming it from a routine checklist into a comprehensive empowerment program. This new system was designed not just to train, but to integrate new hires into our core mission and practices. It became our scaffolding for sustainable performance, ensuring each team member could not only meet expectations but exceed them, even during intense growth phases.
If you’re ready to build a resilient team that not only meets challenges but embraces them, let’s talk about crafting an onboarding system that sets every new hire up for success. Because in the end, it’s not just about hiring talent—it’s about maintaining an environment where they can thrive.

"I didn't know you are deaf..."
This common reaction surfaces when people discover I'm profoundly deaf, especially when my hearing aid is hidden under a hat.
✳️ It's Deaf Awareness Week this week which runs until Sunday 12th May.

Why Keeping Records Can Save Your Business
Ever had a moment in your professional life where you wished you had a written record of past conversations? You're not alone.
Imagine you're at a pivotal point in your business growth, but you're bogged down by an employee dispute that hinges entirely on "he said, she said" scenarios. Without concrete records, these situations can quickly escalate into major issues, costing your business time, money, and its internal harmony.
I learned the hard way that meticulous record-keeping can be a tide turner. After facing a few tough disputes myself, I started documenting all formal and informal interactions with my team. This simple change didn't just resolve disputes more effectively—it also helped in performance reviews, provided clear examples for feedback, and reinforced positive business practices. It became our compass in the chaos of rapid business growth.
Start documenting your employee interactions today. It might seem tedious at first, but the clarity it brings to your business operations is invaluable. You fall as low as your systems.

https://www.instagram.com/p/C3Yi4u7s0qG/HR Matters: Act Now!
In today's fast-paced business world, HR issues like performance management and absence tracking often take a backseat. Yet, addressing these neglected areas is crucial for fostering a productive and engaged workforce.
Productivity and performance can drive higher engagement. The truth is, however, that without empathy for people there will not be engagement or productivity, and it does not matter which one of those comes first if the foundation is not solid enough.
Why? Because empathy is the cornerstone of engagement. Understanding what motivates and concerns your employees can significantly improve communication, collaboration, and ultimately, your bottom line.
Consider this:
- Regular one-on-one meetings can uncover employee challenges and aspirations.
- Active listening makes employees feel valued.
- Empathy training for management can transform your work environment.
The Stakes:
1. Boost Productivity: Tackle performance management to fuel growth.
2. Enhance Your Bottom Line: Effective absence management reduces costs.
3. Prevent Legal Issues: Address employee relations to avoid tribunal claims.
4. Foster Harmony: Resolve HR issues to boost morale and engagement.
