CRABTREE CORPORATE SERVICES
On Site-staff Payroll and Employment Services
The Crabtree Group recognise that Human Resources is a complex and ever changing area. If you have on-site staff employed by your management company then, as a Director of the company, it is your responsibility to deal with any employment issues such as contracts of employment, disciplinary action, pensions etc (the list is endless).
Not following the correct procedure in dealing with employment issues could end up costing your company thousands of pounds. For instance, the total compensation award made by employment Tribunals can be up to £76,000 in unfair dismissal cases, with potentially unlimited compensation in certain circumstances such as discrimination.
However, the perceived legal opinion is that, as managing agents, we have the same liability as the “employer” for on-site staff as we supervise their role. In fact, it could be argued that the employment contract should state us as the “employers” and not the resident management company. As a result, we are obviously keen to reduce our own liability as well as that of our clients. The Crabtree Group can offer our clients a “unique bespoke package” that covers payroll services and employment cover through one of our group companies – Crabtree Corporate Services Limited.
