Outsource Your Business Needs
HR Company
Take control of your human resource business needs with an outsourced UK expert.
Expert HR guidance for every business size
Keeping on top of HR matters can feel like a chore, leaving you stretched and in need of support. However, you may be thinking that seeking help from a HR company is an unnecessary expense.
While financial considerations will naturally play a part in any decision you make as an organisation, in reality, the right HR support is likely to save your organisation money in a variety of ways – from allowing you to focus on what you do best to preventing costly Employment Tribunal claims.
WorkNest is a UK HR company that offers a comprehensive and fully outsourced fixed fee HR service designed to support the entire employee lifecycle. From recruitment and onboarding to learning and development, retention and restructures, we provide seamless HR solutions that cover every aspect of your people management needs.
Our services are delivered by a growing network of experienced and qualified HR Consultants located throughout the UK. Our extensive expertise ensures that you receive tailored support and guidance, allowing you to manage both the operational day-to-day requirements and the more strategic aspects of your HR function, such as conducting tactical reviews of your people strategy and organisational design.
We can support organisations of all sizes, whether you’re a small business with little or no in-house HR resource, a larger organisation looking to streamline your HR processes and enhance strategic focus, or an established HR team that needs additional support or specialised expertise in specific areas of HR.

WorkNest: Your HR function away from home
At WorkNest, we help thousands of UK employers to ensure the stability of their workforce through personalised, practical HR support.
Working closely with employers and internal HR teams, we act as a trusted extension of your organisation that you can call upon at any time for honest, professional advice. No matter your size, sector, or the arrangements you currently have in place, our HR experts will provide tailored support based on their in-depth understanding of your organisation and the specific challenges you face.
If you’re struggling to keep up with changes to the law, are growing quickly or have seen a rise in the number of employee disputes, you need a HR expert to provide you with specialist advice and guidance.
This is why outsourcing your HR and employment law to a HR company can make things easier, allowing you to concentrate on all the other important tasks.
In the worst case scenario, missteps can lead to an Employment Tribunal claim. Unfortunately for employers, now that Tribunal fees have been scrapped, there’s nothing to stop litigious employees pursuing legal action. With the average award for unfair dismissal sitting at almost £14,000 and discrimination claims costing closer to £30,000, the cost of going it alone can be significant. Of course, as well as the impact on your bottom line, there’s also reputational damage to consider.
But it’s not all about legal risk. Employee relations issues can impede productivity, affect morale, and contribute to a high turnover. They put a strain on management, destabilise your workforce, and ultimately affect your ability to deliver on key objectives. If you’re not an Employment Law expert, the time and stress involved in dealing with your people problems can become a considerable burden — one that will only increase as your organisation grows.
Good legal advice, on the other hand, helps employers avoid these pitfalls. It enables them to handle risks effectively, streamline their operations, and make informed decisions. This not only ensures compliance with the law but also contributes to a healthier work environment and a stronger, more resilient business.
