MORE WAYS WE CAN SUPPORT YOUR BUSINESS Flexible services to complement your retained HR package
Retained HR Support
With our retained HR service, you get unlimited advice, bespoke documentation, and hands-on case management — all for a fixed monthly fee that keeps you compliant, confident, and free to focus on growth.
Sometimes you don’t need ongoing HR support — you just need the right advice, or the right documentation, exactly when the situation calls for it. Our Pay As You Go (PAYG) HR services give you the flexibility to access expert support without committing to a retainer.
Not every HR need fits into ongoing support. That’s why we offer tailored HR projects to help you manage complex issues, deliver change, and strengthen your people strategy. From restructures to EDI support, we provide expert guidance to keep your business compliant and moving forward.
Empower your team with elearning designed specifically for small and medium-sized businesses. Our carefully curated course bundles provide the tools to ensure compliance, boost productivity, and build a thriving workplace culture. With flexible, CPD-accredited elearning courses, your staff can train anytime, anywhere.
SMEs face unique challenges when it comes to managing people. Our HR services give you the confidence to stay compliant and the freedom to focus on what matters most — running and growing your business.
The right HR software (also known as HRIS or HR systems) helps UK SMEs save time, stay compliant, and create a seamless employee experience. From onboarding and absence tracking to performance management and payroll, HR software powers a more effective HR function.
At Impact HR, we understand that no two organisations are the same. That’s why our training is never off-the-shelf — it’s designed around your people, your challenges, and your goals.
We believe employee wellbeing isn’t a “nice to have” — it’s a business essential. When your people feel supported both in and out of work, they’re more engaged, motivated, and resilient. Our Employee Wellbeing services are designed to help you protect and enhance the wellbeing of your team through practical, evidence-based solutions that improve attendance, performance, and overall workplace culture.
Keeping your workplace safe and compliant is not optional – it’s essential. We provide practical health and safety support that helps you meet legal requirements, reduce risks, and create a safer environment for your employees and visitors. Whether you need ongoing retained support, one-off projects, or specialist training, our team of experts are here to give you confidence and peace of mind.
