HRuprise for Business: A Radical New Approach to Company HR
Written by HRuprise founder, Rebecca Weaver.
For small, new, and growing businesses, HR can seem like an extravagance, something corporate, something you only need after you reach a certain critical mass. But if you’ve followed #MeToo or #BlackLivesMatter, you know that HR is both essential to any workplace, and SUPER problematic in its traditional form.
After all, traditional HR enabled decades of harassment that led to both of these social justice movements. And now in our post-lockdown world, HR has struggled to adapt to the historic surge in employees’ personal standards for fulfillment, flexibility, and freedom from abuse at work.
But there is hope. The pandemic has opened a new opportunity for small businesses to reinvent HR from the ground up. The HR of the future doesn’t have to be the place where harassment complaints go to die. It can be an adaptable, compassionate, and most importantly, trustworthy resource for your employees, and a cornerstone for you in building a business where people truly want to work.
If you’re ready for a new approach to HR, we’re here to help with HRuprise for Business.
HRuprise for Business is an independent model for HR. We work one-on-one with your employees in a truly confidential environment, where they can honestly share their workplace concerns and goals without repercussion. We don’t report to the company. And we don’t share the content of the coaching sessions. We work for them, and are paid by you.
Why is this good for your business?
It’s a tangible action that shows your employees you recognize their vulnerability within the power structure of your workplace, and that you unequivocally want them to be safe, respected and heard.
It creates a support mechanism that employees can truly trust and will be more likely to use. You’ll be less likely to suffer invisible, long-term harassment issues under your very nose.
It gives your employees access to customized, confidential advice for their unique career concerns, which will help them build happier careers with you, and stick with you longer.
You don’t have to build layers of bureaucracy into your relationships with your employees. You can build a new approach that centers them as people first, rather than liabilities.
HRuprise for Business is a new way to build a supportive, transparent relationship with your employees. It’s an investment that will pay dividends in lowering attrition, increasing job satisfaction, and establishing a reputation as a great employer in your industry.
