HR CONSULTANCY PRACTICE

GulfManagers is pleased to announce the launch of their new consulting services, the Human Resources (HR) Practice. The

HR Practice has been specially geared towards organizations who are dedicated to be in line with the industry best practices.

As organizations seek to maximize their potential, they must recognize that many traditional concepts may no

longer be appropriate. Much too often, the importance of focusing on people who create the value in an organization is

downplayed, which leads to a series of downsizing, hiring freezes, and minimal investment in their human capital. Successful

organizations must capitalize on their people to gain a competitive advantage in today’s truly global marketplace.

We have highlighted below some of the service offerings to provide you with background information as to the new portfolio

of services that GulfManagers can provide towards your organization.

HR SYSTEMS & POLICIES

The primary purpose of defining and collating HR Systems & Policies is to formalize and emphasize the various HR

policies, procedures and systems. These are documented as the following.

• HR Policy and Procedure Manual

• Employee Handbook / Induction Manual

• Operating Policy and Procedures Manual

ORGANIZATION DESIGN

An organization can achieve the best performance from its human capital only if the organization structure and style

supports them. At its most fundamental level, an organization design is a formal, guided process for integrating the people,

information and technology of an organization. It is used to match the form of the organization as closely as possible to the

purpose(s) the organization seeks to achieve. With this in mind, we can work with your organization to design and develop

organizational structure, roles and processes to meet your business needs. These include:

• Organization Structure

• Job Descriptions

• Job Evaluation

• Key Performance Indicators

MEASUREMENT TOOLKIT

With the success of any organization dependent upon its employees, it is important to regularly survey employees to

identify the organizational climate, and to attract, retain and develop key competencies. In order to enable this change, we will

introduce a toolkit which will comprise of a customized survey which is provided to all employees for completion. Upon the

completion of the survey, the results are analyzed and a written report of the findings will be presented.

• Employee Perception Survey

• Compensation Benchmark Survey

HR AUDIT

A Human Resource Audit enables organizations to comprehensively assess their HR practices. GulfManager’s HR Audit

reviews the full range of HR activities, including how your organization is structured to deliver the HR deliverables like

recruitment and selection, compensation and benefits administration, performance management, etc. Identifying “gaps”

between policy and practice can not only increase legal compliance but also increase efficiency and productivity, processes

quality and enhance employee satisfaction.

• HR Diagnostic study

• Manpower Assessment / Rationalization

We would be pleased to assist your organization in carrying out any of the above-mentioned services. Should you have any
