Appendix
They have a small but well instructed HR and recruitment team that has carried
out all the day-to-day HR functions and global recruitment for the company’s
group over most of the 13 years since the company’s inception.
For B1’s regular offices and outlets it’s business as normal. B1’s head office is
based elsewhere in the country, with its own call centre and a multitude of retail
outlets nationwide. Although they have a large recruitment and HR team, none
are made available to AP to assist with migration of function.
The two organisations have developed very different recruitment systems and
totally different HR Information systems, each with vastly different levels of
sophistication. Understandably, this leads to very different induction schemes,
though both adhere strongly to best practice guidelines (ACAS, CIPD, etc.)
From the point of view of new starters and inductions a decision is made by the
heads of both HR departments to carry out both organisations’ inductions for all
new employees for a certain period of time.
