Pay & Benefits

An effective and affordable system of reward, remuneration and benefits is essential for any employer, however large or small and reward can play a key role in your ability to attract and retain talent within your social sector organisation.

Over recent years we have seen a significant change in factors that are important to employees; career success is no longer people’s main priority, the majority would choose mental health and work life balance over career success, and job satisfaction is rated more highly than salary.

How Roots HR can help you with your pay and benefits

Full reviews of your pay and benefits can take considerable time to implement. Clear scoping of the work to be done, leadership, oversight and project management of deliverables is critical for success.

Our consultants can undertake a variety of work from the salary benchmarking of one role to revision of pay scales, from advice on the introduction, administration or removal of benefits to a full remuneration review. Typically, the way we can add value will be through:

  • Review of existing processes
  • Policy development
  • Advice and support
  • Identifying suitable job evaluation systems and undertaking job evaluation
  • Salary benchmarking
  • Review and development of pay scales
  • Benefits reviews
  • Communication and consultation of processes and changes

Benefits of using an HR Consultant for your pay and benefits projects

Changing existing systems, even where these have evolved through custom and practice, can be contentious and difficult and if handled badly, can seriously damage employee relations.

Using an HR Consultant can help mitigate some of these risk and can ensure that your pay and benefits systems are attractive to your workforce and prospective employees.

How much will it cost for you to support me with a pay and benefits project?

All work will be scoped with you and a proposal is provided for your review and approval.

I only need help with a one-off piece of work, will I have to sign up to monthly fees?

No – you won’t be signed up to any monthly fees or subscriptions. We’ll work with you to scope of the work, provide you with a quote for the one-off project – no hidden fees or contracts!

Who would I work with?

You’d be allocated one of our consultants who are highly skilled, technically knowledgeable, friendly and professional HR experts who bring with them substantial experience of having worked in social sector organisations.
