Gap HR Services Ltd - Employment Law Experts

Welcome to Gap HR Services Ltd, keeping you tribunal free since 2003

Hi, I’m Carolyne Wahlen. I formed Gap HR Services to offer expert HR support to small businesses that do not need an in-house HR Manager.

All initial enquiries are free of charge. We want to make it easy for you to get the best advice possible when it comes to employment law and dealing with challenging employees.

You have someone in us who understands the ins and outs of dealing with staff who just will not cooperate.

Your “to do” list gets shorter, as we do it all for you, paperwork, advice, research, etc.

You keep a good working relationship with your staff, because we are the “bad guys” when it comes to disciplinaries, redundancies, etc.

You WILL stay tribunal free – providing, of course, that you use one of our protective Gap HR packages this year.

Please don’t hesitate to call us now on 01491 598 600 or email us on cw@gaphr.co.uk.

Their regular weekly clinics are excellent way to catch up and their one-to-one advice is always friendly, open and challenging.“

Can I bring a solicitor to the redundancy meeting?

Can I bring a solicitor to the redundancy meeting? No, is the short answer to that. There is a right to be accompanied by a colleague or trade union representative. Staff do not need to be a Trade Union member…
