Frequently Asked Questions – Our Services, Support, and Processes
By Chemistry Team
What can a Human Resources (HR) Consultant assist me with?
Human Resources consultants are professionals with knowledge and experience in all matters related to HR, the people side of your business. HR Consultants will assist clients with objective analysis of your HR needs and provide support related to a variety of HR services including executive search, recruitment, immigration, policy development or updates, procedures, performance management, termination support, succession planning, team training and more.
How does this work?
The approach and process will vary depending on the service, and depends entirely upon your business and your particular needs. In general, we initiate the client relationship with a meeting to discuss your needs, and how we can help. From there, we provide a proposal that outlines our understanding of the HR challenges, our approach to providing a solution, the associated fees/timing, as well as information and profiles on our team.
Do you work with particular industries?
The team of HR consultants at Chemistry Consulting Group has worked with clients from across a variety of different industries including hospitality and tourism, construction, technology, mining, health, not-for-profits, education, government (all levels), Indigenous bands and more.

I have a small company. Would I need HR support?
If you have employees, you need to have HR related policies and procedures in place to ensure that you are not at risk. As a small to medium size business owner, you likely struggle with how best to allocate your time to provide the most value to your organization. Time you spend either researching or writing applicable HR procedures or policies could better be spent adding value to other elements of your business. It is also important to ensure that your HR practices and policies are in compliance with current legislated standards which are ever changing within the Employment Standards Act. Keeping your policies up to date will mitigate any risk you may hold as the employer.
How much would HR Consulting and Advise cost?
The cost of any HR related services will depend on what you may already have in place, and which service you need assistance with (recruitment, policy development, etc.). The cost will be established before any work is initiated. We are happy to review your needs and present you with a proposal that will best suit your current HR needs.
