Policies and documentation
Policies that suit you – we’ll adapt our support around your industry.
When it comes to HR, you reap what you sow - and farms are no exception.
Whether you need help managing the Seasonal Worker Scheme, or need support with employee relations and wellbeing - handling HR can be a hassle.
Without dedicated HR support, managing staff concerns could get in the way of what you do best - running your farm. That's where Peninsula comes in. We can help your farm business deal with common workplace issues, such as:
Recruitment of employed, self-employed and seasonal workers.
Ensuring you pay your workers at least the National Minimum Wage.
Checking whether employees have the Right to Work in the UK.
If you want to ensure the protection of those working or visiting your farm in confidence, Peninsula is here to help. We’ll ensure your legal compliance, take care of your farm policies, and offer expert advice – whenever you need support.
You need to ensure you provide staff with the correct working hours, pay, and adequate working conditions. Whilst essential, managing it all can be overwhelming, especially when trying to grow your business.
When you become a Peninsula client, our team of legal experts will guide you through all of your legal requirements - ensuring every action you comply with the latest employment law, as well as legislation relevant to the agricultural industry. And, if you ever encounter employment tribunal claims, we can help with that too. As part of your Peninsula package, our team will handle the entire process - including:
Your legal paperwork.
Taking witness statements.
Defending you at a tribunal.
So, you can relax and focus on growing your business, whilst we handle your HR.
Your staff needs employment contracts. Not to mention, they need to be aware of how to report inappropriate conduct, and clear grievance and disciplinary procedures.
That's where Peninsula can help. With unlimited documentation support, you’ll receive expert-made:
Grievance and disciplinary procedures.
So whilst you continue to grow your farming business, we'll support you with your HR documentation. And whenever the legislation changes, you can feel confident your documentation consultants will update your paperwork to keep you safe
