EasyRecruitUK worked closely with Premier Foods to ensure a smooth transition of agency workers when taking over the contract. They used a two-pronged approach of improving benefits for existing workers and streamlining administrative processes. This resulted in a 100% retention rate of the existing workforce during the transition. EasyRecruitUK's experience managing major transitions for companies like BT and IBM helped ensure a seamless changeover for Premier Foods.

1. TRANSITION CONSULTING
& MANAGEMENT
Transitioning to a new employment agency poses certain business
challenges. When EasyRecruitUK tendered for the Premier Foods contract
(which includes Hovis and Mother’s Pride), one of the key issues was ensuring
a smooth transition from the previous agency and retaining the business-
critical skills of the incumbent agency workers. Any major change of supplier
requires careful management to ensure smooth operations, but dealing
with labour requires an extra element of attention because of the emotional
impact of affecting people’s livelihoods.
EasyRecruitUK consultants worked closely with Premier Foods every step of
the way to create a seamless transition and retain the loyalty of its existing
workers. It uses a two-fold approach of offering improved employee benefits
and streamlining the management process.
EasyRecruitUK is unique because it has employees, not “temps”.
With EasyRecruitUK, existing workers gain access to a benefits programme
that includes holiday pay and health insurance options, and have access to
a range of financial services including loans, mortgages and credit cards.
Additionally, EasyRecruitUK employees benefit from extensive training
opportunities. These benefits resulted in a 100% employee retention rate in
the Premier Foods transition. EasyRecruitUK’s web-based software smoothed
the transition for the company by giving it brand new administrative tools
including automated time sheets and real-time reporting.
EasyRecruitUK understands that the transfer of agency workers is critical to
everyone involved in a change of agency.
Thanks to the extensive experience of our consulting team – which has
managed transitions for companies including BT, IBM, Dale Farm, McGhee’s
Bakery, Lee’s of Scotland and Bells Bakers – EasyRecruitUK is proud to say it
has a 100% employee retention success rate. This knowledge and expertise
has made EasyRecruitUK one of the most respected employment consulting
services in the United Kingdom.
