Outsourced Human Resources, also known as HR Outsourcing, is the practice of hiring an external company or individual to handle either some, or all of a company’s human resources functions. This can include tasks such as recruitment, payroll processing, benefits administration, compliance, employee relations and training and development.

Outsourced HR services can be customised to meet the specific needs of a business, whether it’s a small startup, SME or a large corporation. Some businesses, typically SMEs choose to outsource their entire HR function, while others may choose to outsource only certain tasks or projects.

By outsourcing HR functions, businesses can save time, reduce costs and gain access to specialised expertise and technology. Outsourcing HR can also free up internal resources to focus on core business functions, such as sales and product development.

Overall, outsourced HR can be a valuable option for small businesses looking to streamline their HR processes, reduce costs and gain access to specialised expertise and technology.
