Global Employee Relations
Tricky people issues are never easy especially when they are in another country.
When it comes to resolving issues no two countries are the same- different regulations require a different approach and without an expert to guide you a misstep can prove costly.
What doesn’t help is that local advisors fail to signpost the quirks or contrast the local position against what your used to. Because our advisors are all seasoned multi-country specialists they approach each issue with an international perspective flagging local peculiarities from the outset so that pre-emptive action can be taken to extinguish any flare ups.
However we appreciate that this is an area where early intervention isn’t always possible – whatever the issue we are on hand to provide immediate support with a sense of urgency that few advisors can match.
Our consultants are specialists in the field of global employee relations, uniquely skilled to advise across multiple countries every day and have done for many years.
We have built an unrivalled internal knowledge base and network of specialists specifically curated so that it caters for an international employer.
Our clients are technology start-ups who lack internal HR resources and need to react quickly to funding and markets- we squeeze our support into timeframes that most advisors can’t accommodate.
