Case: Wouters & Hendrix

A polished HR policy

In their role as HR Consultant, our colleagues take on an advisory role and supported the team in designing an HR policy that is exactly tailored to the organization.

Specifically, they relieved Wouters & Hendrix from...

Updating the employment regulations: this took into account both legal requirements and company-specific needs.
Aligning compensation & benefits: they developed a proposal for a balanced and equitable remuneration structure.
Making working hours more flexible: a strategic change in the hourly system, including flexible working hours, resulted in greater flexibility and efficiency in the workplace.
Setting up a structured review cycle: this was necessary to align individual development and goals with business goals and to create an open feedback culture.
Writing out job descriptions and vacancy texts: this allows the right profiles, with specific know-how, to be recruited and each employee has a clear picture of their tasks.
Setting up a competency matrix where competencies were defined at the job level. These competencies were linked to a training plan.

The building blocks of a sustainable HR policy

Designing a sustainable HR policy requires a great deal of time and precision. For this part, the UNIKOO members will also support the Wouters & Hendrix team in the future.

A few examples...

Developing a training plan: an approach that is tailored like a jewel to the knowledge gaps and the organization's needs.
Writing out different policies: policies form the backbone of an organization's HR policy. These policies serve as a compass, not only for employees but also for managers, to ensure consistency, transparency, and fairness within the organization.
Setting up an effective on- and offboarding process: this with due attention to both practical aspects and creating a positive company culture. The goal? Forging long-term and close ties with employees.
The introduction of a time registration mechanism, with the aim of promoting efficiency in the workplace and giving employees more flexibility in the form of flexible hours and gliding times.
Designing a recruitment process and providing them with an interview template that can serve as a guide when recruiting new employees.
