You may have been considering outsourcing your Human Resources (HR) for some time for a myriad of reasons – perhaps you simply cannot source the right people for the right job.
So, what are the benefits of outsourcing this crucial part of business? The benefits are many:
Money Saving:
Having an experienced team performing HR functions is a costly business. Even for just one HR Manager, he cost could be anywhere from $50 K upwards, in just salary alone. Outsourcing this function of your business can result in huge savings annually. And furthermore, outsourced companies tend to work to find ways to make your business further savings also. They work with your best interests in mind, to save you money.
Time Saving:
Having outsourced this function, you will have made significant savings in time, which can be spent focussing on other aspects of the business, or with your family. And, as they say “time is money”. You will no longer need to liaise with a HR team on tasks, or hold team briefing sessions, all of which are very time consuming. Employee performance, payroll, hiring etc. – these can all be outsourced, freeing you up to focus on other tasks.
You Get the Best People For the Job:
Another reason why HR Outsourcing is a fantastic idea is that you will have the very best people working on these functions. You won’t need to do interviews for new HR staff, and chase up references and qualifications. If you choose to outsource, the company you take on will have already done this when hiring an agent. They can then assign the best agents to task, according to your specific business requirements. Again, the outsourced company will work in your best interests here, as it is of benefit to them to ensure a job is well done, as much as it is to your business.
Work Improvements:
This ties in with the time saving point above. If you have spread yourself too thin, trying to cover all bases in your business, then work will suffer. Accuracy and precision falls by the way side. With HR outsourced, you can be sure that any tasks assigned out will be completed exactly as required, and on time. This leaves you more time to get on with other things in the company, and as a result, you will see big changes in accuracy and precision in your work.
These are just some of the reasons why you should consider outsourcing your HR functions. This leaves one less thing to worry about while you get on with your business. The outsourced company will be using the very latest technology, techniques & practises in carrying out this work for you. They will have the latest legislation in mind when it comes to employees, saving you time again. And you are sure to find that the savings, in both time & money, that can be achieved by outsourcing this kind of work, can be vast.
