HR Services & Consulting

FifthEagle can help your business with the process of staff redundancies. Our focus in this area is to provide you with the advice you need from a legislative and regulatory perspective to ensure the process is handled as efficiently and delicately with minimal disruption to the business.

The value of this approach is that it helps your organisation avoid unfair dismissal claims and removes your exposure to technicalities that can often impact companies that aren’t familiar with the processes involved in making a staff member redundant.

Sometimes issues happen in the workplace that require an independent investigation to ensure the process and outcomes are compliant and within legislative requirements. FifthEagle can support you with workplace investigations covering areas such as:

Unfair dismissals
Performance management
Harassment or bullying complaints
Work conditions
Health & safety

An investigation forms the basis for any legal issues and provides an unbiased report and recommendation. Undertaking a workplace investigation can help your business avoid an increase in workplace incidents that may result in damaged equipment, injury to staff or a decline in overall productivity.

An Enterprise Bargaining Agreement (EBA) can sometimes differ significantly from an industry award however might provide “better-off overall” benefits for you and your employees, but how do you negotiate if this is a better arrangement or communicate this to the people in your company?

FifthEagle’s HR expertise can help you through the process and guide you on issues such as an expiry date for the EBA, dispute settlement procedures between you and your employee, and flexibility and consultation terms.

When recruiting and interviewing a job description provides a level playing field in the process by clearly describing the key responsibilities of the position, reporting relationships and work environment. FifthEagle can help with well-structured job descriptions that can also be used in many other ways including job evaluation, performance appraisals, training, development and career planning.

When aligned with key performance indicators (KPI) as a quantifiable metric to ensure employees are working towards the goals of the business, they provide powerful tools to measure performance and outcomes, a process FifthEagle can help you with.

Succession planning is critical to ensuring that your business is always led by the best people. Whether recruiting new leaders for the company or taking family members on board, FifthEagle can help.

Regardless of the industry you operates in you need to be thinking about a continual strategy for leaders in your company who have the talent, personality and motivation to lead the business in the future and FifthEagle can help you identify them and establish the best model from which to move forward.

FifthEagle can help you achieve the peace of mind that comes with knowing that your business is fully compliant and has a high performing team culture. Many business owners and managers find that this in turn gives them the opportunity to work on the business rather than be stuck working in the business.

Our approach is to start with a workplace audit where we focus on ensuring we have a clear understanding of where you want to take your business. The findings from the audit and our discussions will help formulate an action plan, for which we will set quarterly reviews to assess the progress.
