Retained HR Support in Cheshire & North Wales

Retained HR is for employers who want consistent, proactive HR support β€” not firefighting. We help you handle people issues early, keep managers aligned, and reduce legal exposure.

This works especially well where absence, performance, conduct or grievances are recurring, or where management confidence is variable. Occupational Health input can be integrated where health and capability are factors.
