A Premier Commitment to HR

Premier Community, whose HQ is based at Lancaster House on Millenium Business Park, has been caring for the people of Mansfield and the surrounding areas for over 27 years and employs over 500 people across its Nottinghamshire & Derbyshire Care Branches.

They have now teamed up with Hopkins Solicitors to ensure that best practices in HR and Employment law matters within their business are managed in line with their ethos, and to ensure a better working relationship between employer and employee.

“As our family business has grown, we have worked tirelessly to keep our focus clearly on what makes our diverse home care and mobility services unique and of a high quality,” explains Dan Isterling, Managing Director of Premier Community.

“With our Carers and support staff at the heart of everything we do, we recognise the importance of keeping up to date and consistent with the latest HR policies and procedures to ensure we can continue to create a compassionate and supportive community for our workers as well as those we care for.

Hopkins Solicitors offers a full legal service and has been dedicated to supporting local businesses for over 110 years from their head office located in Mansfield and from the 5 other offices across Nottinghamshire and Derbyshire.

Danielle Wright, Head of Employment Law at Hopkins says, “Navigating the employment law rules and regulations can be extremely complex and time consuming for small and medium size businesses, especially those without the ability to afford an HR department. We’ve found that because many law firms only offer high hourly fees, or long tie in periods for HR services, this has left employers waiting until there is a large problem before reaching out for help”.

“We wanted to create a cost-effective HR support service that allows employers to be proactive to hopefully avoid having any issues in the first place. They can contact our employment law specialists whenever they have a question, with no limits on how often they contact us. We offer advice on how they can better support their employees and help negotiate and navigate issues when they start to arise.”

“Working locally in partnership with Hopkins’ Solicitors seems like a natural fit for our business. They understand the importance of community and started out as a small family business like us; we are excited to draw on their knowledge to ensure we can get it right for the most important asset in our business, our people,” adds Dan.
