How a retainer works
We work alongside you and take real responsibility.
At JHG we provide full-service personnel support with the expertise, consistency and legal protection your business needs.
We take responsibility for your HR, your compliance and your labour risk in a way that is practical, reliable and built around your business. From your first hire to complex disciplinary matters and CCMA representation, your HR is properly managed, compliant and handled with care, and it keeps pace as your business evolves.
- We implement, not just advise. Your practitioner drafts the contract, chairs the hearing and sits at the CCMA. You're never handed a memo and left to it.
- Built around your business. Practical processes sized for how you actually operate, not textbook HR.
- Real accountability. Dismissal processes are backed by insurance. If our process is tested, we stand behind it.
What's included
Everything a retainer covers, across the whole employment lifecycle.
Twenty-six services, grouped by the moment you'll need them. Pick a stage, or let it play.

- HR needs analysis
- Strategic HR planning and structuring
- Employment contracts
- HR compliance audit
- HR manual: policies and procedures
- HR practices aligned to compliance and business needs
Hire the right people, properly.
From the advert to the first day, every step is documented and defensible.
Outcome: new hires that start on the right footing.
- Recruitment, selection and onboarding
- Performance and workforce systems
- Workforce analysis
Day-to-day HR, with a practitioner on the line.
The bulk of a retainer is the ordinary Tuesday: a question, a letter, a manager who needs guidance before a conversation.
Outcome: managers who act early, and correctly.

- Participative management
- Early access to training and compliance updates
- On-call strategic HR and IR guidance

When it gets serious, we're in the room.
Your practitioner runs the process, chairs the hearing and represents you if it goes further. Follow our procedure and the dismissal is insured.
Outcome: 1,200+ matters represented, none lost under cover.
- Disciplinary processes, hearings and grievances managed correctly and defensibly
- CCMA, Bargaining Council and Labour Court representation
- Trade union engagement
- Dismissal processes backed by insurance
- Industrial relations services

Statutory deadlines, met without the scramble.
EE reports, WSP/ATR submissions and training compliance are tracked and filed as part of the retainer, not as a surprise invoice.
Outcome: no penalties, and skills grants claimed.
- Employment Equity (50+ employees)
- WSP/ATR management and training compliance
Change the shape of the business without breaking it.
Restructures and retrenchments are where employers get hurt most. We run the process so the outcome holds.
Outcome: a structure that fits where you're going.
- Organisational restructuring processes
- Organisational development
JHG is built for businesses that need structured, compliant HR with real accountability. If that's you, the next step takes two minutes.
Why a retainer
The same situations, handled two ways.
Most employers only call for help once something has already gone wrong. A retainer changes when we get involved.
Situation
Without a retainer
With a JHG retainer
A manager wants to dismiss someone today
Someone searches for a template, holds a quick meeting and hopes it stands up at the CCMA.
One call to your practitioner. A proper process is run, the hearing is chaired, and the dismissal is insured.
A CCMA referral arrives
Find a lawyer, brief them from scratch, pay by the hour, and discover the file has gaps.
We already hold the file. Your practitioner represents you, without briefing anyone from scratch.
The EE or WSP/ATR deadline is next week
A late scramble, a rushed submission, or a missed grant and a possible penalty.
Already tracked and filed as part of the retainer, with the grant claimed.
A new hire starts on Monday
An old contract is reused and edited in a hurry. Policies are "somewhere".
Correct contract, onboarding pack and policies issued before day one.
