Graphite HRM has your documentation covered

Having the right paperwork in place is crucial to protecting your business from issues such as employee claims. So, it makes sense to have everything checked over if it’s been a while, or if you’re unsure as to what standards you need to meet. Graphite’s flexible approach means that we can adapt our review service to meet your specific requirements. 

Helping you stay ahead of evolving legislation

Here are some essential documents we can help with:

  • Handbooks: Full bespoke review and revision of your handbook’s policies to ensure and maintain compliance with employment legislation and best practice. 
  • Employment contracts: Full employment contract review to ensure that they meet the latest employment law regulations. As your business grows and practices within the company change, your contracts will need amending to reflect developments. 
  • Policies and procedures: If you have additional policies and procedures that fall outside of your handbook content, we can also assess and make the necessary amendments. 
  • HR forms and letters: Depending on the size, activity, and structure of your business, you’ll have a wide variety of additional documents that may also need assessing, such as application forms, advertising for recruitment drives, and template letters to staff.
