Core HR Document Support

Essential HR documentation and recurring employee-file administration for businesses that already have payroll covered.

Payroll may already be handled internally, by your accountant or through another payroll provider, while contracts, policies, starter documents and employee files still need a clearer structure.

Core HR Document Support puts the essential HR documents and recurring employee-file administration into one defined service, without requiring you to move your payroll.

Core may suit your business if...

Your payroll is already managed elsewhere
You need essential workplace policies and supporting HR documents
Starter, change and leaver documents are inconsistent or being recreated each time
Employee files or records are difficult to keep organised
You want recurring document administration rather than a one-off document bundle
You do not currently need the broader employee handbook and document library included in Complete

Core is not simply a set of documents prepared during setup. The monthly service keeps the agreed employee-file and HR-document system active after setup.

You have a defined process for keeping the supported documents filed, tracked and easier to locate throughout the year, rather than rebuilding the administration each time someone starts, changes role or leaves.
