About this sector
Outsourced HR is sold on two different models: genuine advisory support, and document-and-helpline packages sold on long contracts. They cost similar amounts and deliver very different things.
Contract length is the thing to read carefully. Three and five-year terms with automatic renewal are common in this sector and are the most frequent source of complaint.
