You've got questions.
We've got answers.
Will your team come to our workplace?
Yes. We work virtually or on site, whichever suits you. Many retainer clients have regular, scheduled days with us at their location, so their teams get to know us.
How does a retainer work?
A retainer is an ongoing monthly partnership. You get a dedicated HR and Safety professional, backed by our whole team, with no guesswork and no surprise invoices. We can also step in for a specific project or a busy season.
Is a retainer cheaper than hiring in-house?
For most small and mid-sized employers, yes. You get a full team of qualified professionals without the cost of a salary, benefits, CPP, EI, vacation pay, statutory holidays, recruiting or training.
What experience does your team have?
Our team is well versed in employment legislation, HR best practices and Health & Safety requirements.
On the HR side, that includes CPHR-certified professionals experienced in compliance, employee relations, policies and leadership support. On the Health & Safety side, we handle WCB, OH&S compliance, safety programs and COR readiness. We've supported employers in construction, agriculture, healthcare, municipalities and more.
What's included in a retainer?
Day-to-day HR and Health & Safety support, policies, compliance and help with tough conversations. You also get free access to the Vault Co-Work Building for meetings and training, 7 days a week.
Is a retainer right for my business?
Retainer work looks different for every client. We support growing teams, work alongside existing HR or Safety departments, step in when a key role leaves, and help middle and senior management. Most often, we start by building a strong working relationship with the business owner and dive in from there.
