HR  

I am Caroline, founder of Grounded Human Resources Limited, a friendly and approachable HR Consultancy, based in York, designed to support and empower business owners. We know that when you are running a small business you can get close to your employees, which can make it difficult to challenge things you aren’t happy about and make difficult decisions. That’s why we support you by using compassionate HR. We believe that people should be treated with respect and compassion. We know that this gets the best out of people and we know that it can help you sleep at night when you have had to make a tough decision regarding your team.

We also believe that HR should be straightforward and down to earth. We want HR to be easy to implement and jargon-free as much as possible. We want to help you, not increase your workload.

We like to work with you to understand the needs and demands of your business, so we can support you in the best way possible. We can help you with: • Contracts of Employment • Employee Handbooks • Recruitment • People issues; disciplinaries, poor performance, grievances, sickness, redundancy • Independent Investigations • Job Descriptions and Job Evaluation

All the advice and documentation we provide is in line with Employment Law and the CIPD’s (Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development) current best practice.

Purpose :

Protecting businesses and enhancing people relationships.

HR can seem overly complicated and sometimes a bit frightening to small business owners, at Grounded HR we strongly believe that HR can be straightforward. We believe you can get the best out of your people and be legally compliant, without the need for complicated systems and lots of policies.

We know that when running a small business, the owners can get close to their employees, which can make it difficult to challenge things they aren’t happy about or make difficult decisions. That’s why we provide compassionate HR. We believe that people should be treated with respect and compassion. We know that this gets the best out of people and we know that it can help business owners sleep at night.

At Grounded HR we also want to change the stereotype of HR people; we aren’t all power-hungry, grim reaper types only showing up to meetings when someone is going to be ‘sacked’. HR professionals can be warm, creative and compassionate, whilst still supporting business owners with tough decisions.

Values:

Straightforward: we provide clear and easy to understand support and advice.

Compassionate: we believe people should be treated how you would want to be treated yourself.

Down to Earth: we are committed to keeping our language uncomplicated and jargon-free.
