No business grows sustainably without motivated, engaged and retained employees. These types of employees aren't produced naturally and need development and support.
Every client has varying needs depending on the makeup and structure of their workforce, type of industry, work performed, whether union or non-unionised, business plan ambitions, business cycle position, private or publicly listed, locations domestically or internationally, in start-up or at a mature stage, and many other variables.
We can support existing HR teams, and provide on-site or remote HR assistance as required.
Where Linq HR can't service a clients needs directly ourselves then we can engage our HR network of qualified HR vendors.
