Roots HR Community Interest Company describe themselves as the UK’s specialist consultancy for human resources in the social sector.
They have been advertising a number of free toolkits.
Their recent one is aimed at helping small social sector organisations to:
- Design and deliver effective probation procedures and practices tailored to individual organisations
- Guide managers in delivering effective probation processes to maximise the potential and success of new employees in their roles
- Keep records of probation reviews
Understand and meet minimum legislative requirements at the start of employment and beyond - Treat new employees fairly, in line with equality of opportunity, the principles of diversity and inclusion and with transparency and accountability
- Evaluate probation procedures that have taken place and use this information to improve recruitment, selection, induction and probation outcomes in
the future - Maintain the minimum possible cost and administrative burden balanced against the direct and indirect financial costs of failing to use probation
effectively.
