Fractional HR Support

What is Fractional HR?

Fractional HR provides organizations access to human resources professionals and services, without the need for someone in that role full-time. We offer modern HR consulting and fractional HR support for small, medium, and large businesses across Canada and the US. Our HR professionals get to know your business and take on HR tasks so that you can focus on building your business.

We work with your team to determine the service level your organization requires, which varies for every organization. This may be only a couple of hours of service per month, or others may require several days of support. Our goal is to ensure you and your team have the HR support you need.

Your assigned team will work with you to determine the right mix of onsite resources you need, but we are always available to you even when not onsite at your office because we know that HR issues can arise at any time.

Small & Medium Size Businesses

Every year, thousands of small businesses in Canada and the US fail due to a lack of necessary business support. One crucial area where businesses require support to succeed is human resource management. At Total Resource HR, we can offer you the expertise needed to manage your most valuable resource - your people, while you continue to grow and succeed as a business owner.

We provide cost-effective human resource solutions that cater to the budget constraints of small businesses. You do not need to worry about making room in your budget to hire another full-time employee. Instead, with us, you only pay for the services you need. Our HR consultants will work with you to develop HR strategies that are tailored to your business needs and will help you operate more efficiently.

Our HR department can assist you with a wide range of HR-related areas such as creating HR policies, drafting employee handbook, conducting HR audits, managing onboarding processes, conducting exit interviews, running employee engagement surveys, providing performance evaluations and coaching, and much more. No matter how small the task is, we are always ready to support you.

Strategic HR Consulting

Our HR consultants have witnessed the transformative power of strategic HR planning on businesses. It's not just about hiring and firing; it's about aligning your people strategy with your business objectives. But how can you ensure that you're on the right track? That's where consultants come in. We offer a fresh perspective, a wealth of experience, and tried-and-tested methodologies to help you identify gaps in your current strategy, develop a robust plan, and set you up for success. 

If you're looking to optimize your HR function and propel your business forward, you're in the right place. Let's work together and explore this topic.

Strategic HR planning, when done right, can be highly effective. Our HR consultants have exposure to various industries and issues, which enables them to spot trends, anticipate changes, and propose solutions effectively. They work collaboratively with you, conduct a workforce analysis, identify skill gaps, and provide training solutions. We can help make policies that are flexible enough to adapt to ever-changing workforce needs.

It's one thing to have an HR plan, but it's another to have one that truly aligns with your business objectives. That's where a strategic expert comes into play. HR consultants can unravel complex business goals, break them into achievable targets, and ensure that these are reflected in your HR goals. We focus on aligning HR strategies such as succession planning, talent management, and leadership development with that of business strategy. This alignment ensures that your human capital can effectively contribute to your company's success.

Finally, measuring success with metrics and KPIs in strategic HR planning is critical. Our HR consultants can help you set up metrics and KPIs that are aligned with your business objectives, measure progress, and adjust as needed. With our consultants' help, you can ensure that your HR function is optimized, and your business is set up for success.

Compensation Consulting

Looking for a compensation consulting service that can offer you a solid and fair compensation system tailored to your company's size and stage? Look no further! We specialize in start-ups and scale-ups, and we use a unique process that involves defining your compensation philosophy, conducting thorough research and data analysis, and creating pay bands that can scale with your business. Our services are not limited to this; we will also train your team on how to use the pay bands effectively and ensure a smooth launch. We believe in an equitable approach to pay, and we are happy to work with international and remote teams to tackle their unique compensation challenges.

Pay Equity Consulting

In Ontario, Pay Equity is defined as equal pay for work of equal or comparable value. This means that men and women should receive the same pay for doing substantially the same work.

All employers in Ontario with 10 or more employees are required by law to achieve and maintain pay equity. To establish pay equity, employers must determine the "value" of each job using a gender-neutral job evaluation system and analysis. This analysis tests for gender bias in compensation practices and requires employers to correct any discrepancies.

At Total Resource HR, we can help you achieve pay equity compliance by explaining the legislation and your obligations, conducting a pay equity analysis to identify discrepancies, fixing any discrepancies to establish pay equity (if needed), creating your required pay equity plan, and showing you how to maintain pay equity.

If you want to learn more about how we can assist you with your Pay Equity obligations and other Human Resources needs, please feel free to contact us.
