HALLIDAYS PROVE THEY ARE LIVING THE BRAND

Stockport based Hallidays are living their new brand as ‘more than just accountants’ and provided their client James Pugh & Sons Ltd with HR services.

James Pugh & Sons, providers of high quality transport, storage and distribution, had a growing team of 20+ people and needed a HR supplier who would be a true business partner and selected Hallidays Ethical Resourcing team (HER).

Managing Director Richard Pugh found he was spending too much time on HR matters at the expense of the business after experiencing poor service elsewhere. By developing a close business partnership with HER he became confident to take ideas forward. A real in-depth knowledge of the haulage industry, coupled with Richard always speaking direct to his personal adviser and HER’s ideas have helped Richard improve overall communications with his team, address difficult issues and given him guidance with disputes.

Richard is confident he has made the right choice: 

“Since we chose HER, the service and support we have received has been exceptional. They are available to help us deal with any issues and are involved with all aspects of HR in our firm. When needed, they are on hand to support us personally with issues and they have helped us develop our people, teams and processes.”

Deb Cox (left) the HER director of Hallidays commented:

“Richard is now able to largely ‘ignore’ HR matters knowing that when there is an issue he can call his HR Adviser and receive prompt, personal and timely advice. In between times, he knows that he will be updated on any employment law changes affecting his business and that we will be in regular contact with ideas about how to be an even better employer!

“Moving forward, he is getting to grips with auto enrolment, salary sacrifice and a range of employee initiatives with our help and support.”
