Our Human Resources Solution is comprehensive. Most clients use either the Basic, Standard, or Complete option, but a customized project is always an option too.

Human Resources

The Difference.

We provide SMEs with a comprehensive HR function delivered at a fraction of the cost of a full-time employee, with the human touch and guidance an HRIS alone can’t offer.
No two businesses are the same, and an HRIS alone can’t offer guidance. That’s why we always include a dedicated HR team, providing guidance to act strategically and stay competitive. And to answer questions that inevitably pop up!
Save time and money while avoiding frustration with on-demand access to your entire HR library and personnel data. From training to policies and everything in between, streamline all your HR in one place.
Enjoy peace of mind knowing that your organization will always be compliant with the latest policies and compliance requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions About Human Resources

Outsourced HR gives your business access to experienced HR professionals without having to build a full in-house team. Depending on what you need, that can include day-to-day HR support, compliance, employee onboarding and offboarding, employee relations, performance management, HR systems, guidance and coaching for managers and leaders.

It can be, especially if HR responsibilities are starting to take up more time than they should. Some businesses use outsourced HR because they aren't ready to hire a full-time HR employee. Others already have someone handling HR and need extra expertise or capacity as the organization grows.

Yes. If you don't have an internal HR team, we can take on that role and work as part of your organization. You'll have an HR Team Lead who gets to know your business and culture, backed by a broader team with experience across different areas of HR.

Yes. You don't have to hand over your entire HR function. We can work alongside your existing team to fill gaps, add capacity, or provide expertise when something falls outside their day-to-day responsibilities.

Our ongoing HR support can cover policy development, compliance, onboarding and offboarding, leadership/management guidance and coaching, performance management, absence management, employee relations and engagement, training and development, and HRIS management and administration. We also have expertise in succession planning, workplace investigations, compensation strategy, policy development, and HR strategy which can be part of your embedded support or provided provided as a focused project.

We help businesses understand and manage their HR responsibilities as employment requirements change across all provinces and territories. That includes reviewing current practices, identifying gaps, keeping policies and processes up to date, providing training, and helping managers navigate compliance questions as they come up.

An HR Health Check is a review of your current HR practices and process to see what's working well and where there may be gaps or risks. It gives you a clearer picture of where things stand and helps identify the HR priorities your business should tackle next.

Yes. Many of our ongoing HR clients use an HR Information System, or HRIS, to make everyday HR administration easier. We help with the system configuration, management and its administration while also providing the human HR support and guidance that software can't replace.

Our HR solution is designed to flex with your business. You can choose the level of ongoing support that fits today and adjust as your team, priorities, or HR needs change. If an unexpected issue or project comes up, additional support is available when you need it.

Hiring an HR employee gives you one person with a particular set of skills and experience. While you are partnered with a senior BSG HR professional for your support, with an outsourced HR team, you can draw on a wider range of HR knowledge while adjusting the amount of support you use as your needs change. For smaller businesses, that can be a practical way to build a more complete HR function without adding several full-time roles.

We start with a discovery call to learn about your business, your current HR setup, and where you could use support. From there, we'll recommend an approach that fits your needs. Once you're ready to move ahead, you'll meet your HR Team Lead and begin onboarding.

Yes. Not every HR need requires ongoing support. We can take on individual projects such as workplace investigations, policy development, leadership development, succession planning, compensation and benefits strategy, employee engagement, or other specialized HR initiatives.
