Practical HR Support for Farming Businesses

Managing Human Resources (HR) can be one of the most challenging aspects of running a farming business as the legal responsibilities surrounding employment law and HR are extremely complex.

As a business owner, you are legally required to provide specific documentation for your employees to ensure compliance with current UK employment laws. This can put you in a difficult position as you don’t necessarily have the need for dedicated HR staff, but the alternative of managing HR alone can be a daunting prospect.

This is where outsourcing HR can be a gamechanger, because it gives you access to the expertise you need (when you need it) and the comfort of knowing that you are compliant with the latest employment legislation.

What CXCS can offer?

Our HR service provides a variety of solutions – from essential basics to a comprehensive suite of policies, procedures, templates, and guidance. We also offer the flexibility of providing documentation in hard copy format or digitally through our accessible portal.

Contracts of employment

Regardless of the size of your team, you are legally required to provide each employee with a written statement detailing their terms and conditions of employment.

Policies & procedures

All employees must have a disciplinary and grievance procedure policy that complies with current UK employment law. For businesses with five or more employees, it is also recommended to have an absence & leave policy and a conduct policy.

Company handbooks

As an alternative to individual policies and procedures, a fully bespoke and branded company handbook can be provided which combines everything into a single reference document.

Employment packs

If you are hiring your first employee or need the peace of mind that your existing documents are correct, our employment packs give you the basics you need to make sure you are legally compliant.

Support & advice

Our dedicated HR team is here to provide expert advice and practical solutions for any workforce issue — helping you stay compliant with UK employment law every step of the way.

Whether you need a full HR package or just a few essential documents, our flexible and cost-effective services can be tailored to suit your farming business. With unlimited access to advice and legal support, you’ll have complete peace of mind — and more time to focus on running your business.
