Creating a fundamental transformation in Nicholas & Co

“The benefits of working with Danton are too many to mention in one go. As a business owner, I’ve got the confidence and resilience to manage my team and no longer muddle through.”

Clients love our employment packs; they give them the basics they need to get up and running with employees quickly and without fuss or hassle.

We provide outsourced HR solutions to a number of clients who don’t have in house HR support, acting as their virtual HR partner and taking the lead on the full range of HR management and administration issues.

Too often businesses feel like they get buried under a mountain of paperwork from annual leave cards, personal files, training spreadsheets and policies and procedures stored in all manner of places, they have inefficient paper or spreadsheet-based systems and in today’s world of smart phones and mobile working, old HR systems just don’t cut it.

We were approached by a large business who had been trying to resolve a complex grievance involving a member of the leadership team that had reached appeal stage. There was a real risk that the employee was going to lodge an Employment Tribunal and the Directors felt that independent involvement at the appeal stage was needed given the numerous people who had been involved to that point.

We often work with new clients who already have contracts of employment, a handbook, policies and procedures in place but they are out of date, are no longer compliant and don’t give the best solutions or protection to the business.

Our client had a long serving employee who was doing just enough to ‘get by’ but wasn’t really delivering the performance required by the business. There were low level management issues but it felt that there was never enough for the client to start formal performance or disciplinary processes although many conversations had taken place.

We give extensive guidance and support to our clients when they have performance and disciplinary issues with their staff and we will occasionally work directly with them during more complex disciplinary processes.
