AS the credit crunch begins to bite, human resources expert Peter French, of Pickering, has set himself up as the champion of small and medium-sized businesses.
His company, The Checkpoint HR Services, offers a web-based HR operating system which allows users to access and manage staff records and information from anywhere, as well as offering guidance and advice, if necessary on a telephone help line.
Peter believes his venture will prove a boon to small firms forced to cut manpower as a result of the recession, or who find their HR managers overstretched. Now he is gunning for the New Business Of The Year accolade in The Press Business Awards 2009.
By linking into the HR Partner system via thecheckpointhrs.com businesses can securely store information on individual staff, company procedures and standard letter templates, as well as a wealth of guidance on managing staff and up-to-date legislation.
“If people require more personal service there is an option to speak to a consultant for advice,” he said.
