Bartlett Workplace 360
At Bartlett Workplace, our team has over 25 years experience advising employers on their legal obligations and industry best practice
That experience has shown us two key things:
1. Every element of a human resources & workplace compliance system needs to work together to be truly efficient.
2. A human resources & workplace compliance system is only ever as strong as the skills of the people implementing it.
Our Workplace 360 review ensures every element in your human resources and workplace compliance system works together and that your people have the knowledge and skills needed to effectively implement it.
As part of that process, our expert team will review your current suite of employment instruments including values, strategy and behaviour instruments; enterprise agreements; policy, procedure and guideline documents; and employment and contractor agreements, workplace complaints and investigation processes.
We will then work with you to identify the challenges facing your organisation. Many of the elements that Workplace 360 looks at, are fundamental to putting the right foundations in place and setting up your business and its people to go from strength to strength which will help future proof your business.
We will build on that work to create a comprehensive human resources and workplace compliance system that perfectly meets your specific needs and addresses the specific challenges you face.
We will then structure a comprehensive training program to ensure your people have the knowledge and skills needed to effectively implement and use the system to drive productivity, ensure compliance and avoid costly and distracting disputes. This can include face-to-face training, online education or a blended solution as appropriate to your needs.
Teams are provided with and taught how to properly deploy implementation documents including guide books, field manuals, scripts and templates to name a few.
