When we formed the company in 1990 we had experience in HR - both in the UK and abroad. Together with many colleagues we had found that whilst line managers (our internal customers) required HR to face outwards, servicing their immediate needs, legislation warranted more & more research, care & attention. Further, no-one could develop an effective strategic plan without considering both legal and HR input.

We therefore felt that it was time to develop an entirely new approach to supporting the HR professional. This approach had to:

• Harness HR pragmatism with professional legal know-how

• Provide time and cost saving services

• Offer unparalleled confidence in the quality of advice

• Always be there - 24hr cover

• Give continuity of service - our clients will have 'their' first point of contact

• Give personal service - no compulsory voicemails, always "meet the team" when we get a new client

Since 1990 we have grown steadily and we will continue to do so. We have harnessed new technology, but only to support our personal contact. We have introduced new services and support.

But we are most proud of the fact that we have long lasting successful and friendly working relationships with our clients.

In 2003 we brought together the Resources Group of Companies, including The Policy Network Ltd and HR Link Ltd into one. We renamed Resources Ltd, Human & Legal Resources Ltd to reflect the combination of HR & Legal support we provide.

Human and Legal Resources Ltd is part of the Northgate Group, registered office: Peoplebuilding 2, Peoplebuilding Estate, Maylands Avenue, Hemel Hempstead, Hertfordshire, HP2 4NW, registered in England no. 2717076.
