Fractional HR for Small to Medium-Sized Businesses

The Future of Fractional HR for Businesses

When onboarding a new hire for one of our clients, they are often surprised to discover that HR services are provided through fractional HR—if they realize it.

Many new employees assume that our on-site team members work part-time or are simply in meetings. Because we respond to emails quickly and take calls promptly, employees often don’t realize we’re not working full-time on-site.

That’s the point, however. Why pay a full-time resource to sit at a desk when you can access the same expertise through fractional HR? With emails and cell phones, businesses no longer need full-time on-site HR if their budget only supports one HR resource with limited skills.

Access to an Entire HR Team

Our clients have discovered what feels like a revolutionary solution. With fractional HR for small and medium-sized businesses that we provide, they gain access to an entire HR team led by two partners with over 30 years of HR experience. Strategy and oversight come from a partner working closely with business leadership.

Meanwhile, an HR Generalist is on-site as often as needed, available to answer employee questions. Behind the scenes, an HR Coordinator supports recruitment and ensures tasks are completed efficiently. This team structure helps businesses receive ongoing, and expert HR support without the overhead of full-time staff.

Building Relationships with Employees through Fractional HR

It’s important that employees and management teams feel comfortable with their HR contacts. We foster these relationships by being present on-site for meetings, training, and team events.

Our ongoing clients often assign us internal email addresses and a group HR (HR@Company.com) address. This address is then added to Outlook and monitor emails daily. A personalized signature with our direct line, so it’s easy when employees need to reach us. No different than a branch employee calling HR at head office, they aren’t always face to face, but they get a timely response to their questions and assistance as needed.

Fractional HR is Not a New Concept

Fractional HR services aren’t new. Outsourced IT departments operate with a similar model, offering remote support with on-site availability when needed. The difference is that HR requires more personal interaction. We build strong relationships with management and employees, which is why we maintain consistent primary consultants for our clients to ensure familiarity and trust.

Vacation Coverage? Parental Leaves? No Problem!

One of the biggest benefits of fractional HR for small businesses is that your team always has continuous support. Whether your HR contact takes a vacation or goes on parental leave, we provide seamless coverage to ensure your business continues to receive the same high-quality service.

With Tenfold HR Solutions, there’s no need to scramble for temporary coverage—we manage that on our end. We can even augment teams temporarily for maternity leaves or other long-term absences, ensuring uninterrupted service for your employees.

Internal Customer Service Through Fractional HR

Internal customer service is just as essential as the service you provide to your clients. At Tenfold HR Solutions, we strive to delight our clients by offering timely, professional advice from friendly, efficient HR experts.

Our commitment to exceptional service means that most of our new clients come from referrals. We take pride in delivering the best possible fractional HR support to your team, creating lasting partnerships along the way.
