Who is HR Protect?
HR Protect is focused on providing employment related solutions to employers of all sizes. We have created a new and exciting solution for all employers and are a little unusual in that we combine the skills of qualified business professionals, with legal and human resource/personnel employment practitioners (all either qualified employment lawyers or CIPD qualified practitioners).
Collectively, we offer a wider range of services specifically designed to offer you day to day employee relations support and ultimately protect you from employee litigation…and at prices typically 25% of those charged by certain legal practices and HR consultancies!
What do we offer?
An accessible and affordable solution to the employment law and HR challenges faced by all UK employers – no matter their size. We can offer you the reassurance and technical competence of a leading legal and HR consulting practice – for a low fixed monthly cost, with all the professional back-up you might need.
We make life easier for you. We provide a plug-and-go, self-service HR solution with a wealth of online resources to save you time and money. Simply login and access more than 250 legally-drafted and compliant templates; best practice guides, fact-sheets, our on-line reference library, monthly case precedents and newsletters. These legal documents are simple to understand, easy to customise and updated daily.
They save you a small fortune too. Many legal firms would charge you thousands of pounds for drafting or updating documentation. But with ourselves, these documents are continuously updated and available for you to access any time – and all included within our standard service and fixed price.
“The website is ‘second to none’. The content is fantastic and it is so easy and intuitive to use. Unlike other systems, you can find what you need immediately.”
At the heart of our service is a 24-hour advice centre staffed only by qualified, practising solicitors independently regulated by The Law Society. You can call them every day as many times as you need. They will provide practical advice on how to minimise employment problems and protect your interests at every step. And they use everyday business language – rather than confusing legal jargon.
“We have a personal team of advisors who get to know our business and our preferred method of operating. This makes a huge difference and is the main reason we selected HR Protect over their competitors in the market.”
You’re covered – if the worst happens. Our online resources and telephone advice will prevent many cases from going any further. But if your case goes to court or tribunal, we’ll stay at your side. An experienced barrister or solicitor will represent you and manage your defence, from start to finish. But our service is also backed by employment indemnity insurance that covers the costs of any award, settlement and legal fees incurred (including our barristers’/solicitors’ fees).
“The litigation unit is first class. They have represented us on a number of occasions and the service has been excellent. They pay out under the insurance too – which is a real benefit, as the costs escalate through these proceedings with alarming pace!”
