About Us
Sentient are your eyes and ears for HR, Employment Law, Health & Safety, Food Safety and Hygiene and related training. We specialise in helping employers who struggle to keep on top of the fast changing pace of legislation and all the admin and training that goes along with it. Whilst covering all sectors we have particular expertise in helping manufacturing and food / catering / hospitality related businesses to keep up to date with their health & safety, food hygiene and HR obligations.
With Sentient, you get access to specialists with nationally recognised qualifications in HR, H&S, Food Hygiene and training without having to put them on your pay roll. It’s a cost-effective way to keep your business safe while you get on with running it.
Unlike some consultants, we don’t simply turn up and tell you what to do – we actually get involved in doing the work with you. Once you’ve given us a clear idea of your needs, you can hand over those actions you are unsure of or don’t have time for. We can carry out risk assessments, provide training, put together workable contracts and write your health & safety and food safety policies.
Sentient has all the latest legal statutes, acts and regulations at its fingertips, so you don’t have to. Keeping abreast of your H&S and HR policies can be quite daunting and you may well feel that you can’t see the woods for the trees......let us clarify them for you. We actually enjoy all these things you think of as necessary evils, and many more you may not even be aware of (but should be).
Don’t get bogged down with health & safety policies, risk assessments, manual handling assessments, policies and procedures for fire, noise, COSHH, display screens, first aid, accident reports and investigations etc….. Give yourself a bit of relief and let us home in on your key requirements. We’ll make sure your systems are compliant so you can be confident that when the Inspector calls or your liability insurer asks for copies you are up to speed.
By making sure you’ve issued all your staff with contracts that comply with the latest law and give you the ‘right to manage’, we also help keep you away from employment tribunals. This will save you time and money and give you peace of mind. Building sensible disciplinary and grievance procedures, absence control systems, holiday rules will help you to run your organisation more efficiently.
We can advise your line managers how to deal with those difficult 'people problems' so that they can maximise the time they have available for their main job role. We can help you choose the right training for the right people at the right time making best use of training budgets. The end result is that you can get on with the business of leading, your staff are appropriately trained and your managers have the skills and knowledge to improve and manage your systems, processes and procedures and deal with a whole range of complex staff issues.
