When financial services businesses call THSP
Managers often contact us when an issue is already taking time, creating uncertainty or carrying wider reputational risk. We can help when:
- A conduct, grievance or performance concern needs a fair and defensible process
- Workload, absence or work-related stress is affecting an employee or team
- Hybrid working arrangements have become inconsistent or difficult to manage
- The business is restructuring, acquiring, integrating or changing roles
- Contracts, policies or management processes have not kept pace with growth
- Health and safety arrangements for office and home workers need reviewing
Early advice gives leaders more options and reduces the risk of a rushed decision creating a bigger problem.
One team for HR, employment law and health and safety
You do not need separate providers giving disconnected advice. THSP brings workplace health and safety, HR and employment law support together, with named experts who get to know how your business operates.
HR and employment law support
We help managers make fair, commercially sensible decisions across the employee lifecycle, including:
- Employment contracts, handbooks and workplace policies
- Recruitment, onboarding and probation
- Absence, capability and reasonable adjustments
- Performance, conduct, disciplinary and grievance matters
- Workplace investigations and whistleblowing process support
- Flexible working, restructures, redundancies and employee exits
Health and safety for office, hybrid and remote teams
Financial services workplaces may be lower risk than construction or manufacturing, but employers still need suitable and maintained arrangements. We can support with:
- Health and safety policies and practical responsibilities
- Office, DSE and homeworking risk assessments
- Fire safety, first aid and accident procedures
- Lone working and personal safety
- Work-related stress risk management
- Clear improvement plans that managers can maintain
Training for managers and employees
Policies only work when people know what to do. THSP provides practical training for real workplace situations, including:
- Managing conduct, performance and difficult conversations
- Disciplinary and grievance procedures
- Stress, mental health and workplace behaviour
- DSE, homeworking, fire safety and first aid
Support through change, pressure and sensitive decisions
Regulatory change, acquisition, technology adoption, restructuring and growth can all affect roles, workloads and management expectations. THSP helps you plan the people and workplace implications early, communicate clearly and keep a proper record of the decisions made.
We can also help leaders respond where pressure is affecting wellbeing, attendance or performance. The aim is not to remove every demanding situation. It is to identify avoidable risk, act early and give managers a clear route forward.

Frequently Asked Questions
01.Do financial services firms need health and safety support if employees mainly work in offices?
Yes. Office-based employers still need suitable arrangements for DSE, fire safety, first aid, work-related stress, accidents and hybrid or home workers. The controls should be proportionate to the risks and maintained in practice.
Can THSP advise on FCA regulations?
No. THSP does not replace specialist FCA compliance advice. We support the HR, employment law, health and safety and training responsibilities that sit alongside financial regulation.
02.Can THSP help with a sensitive conduct or performance issue?
Yes. We can guide managers through investigation, disciplinary, grievance, capability and performance processes, helping the business act fairly, document decisions and reduce avoidable risk.
03.Can THSP support a firm without an internal HR team?
Yes. THSP can act as an outsourced HR and employment law partner, provide health and safety support, or work alongside existing internal teams where additional expertise or capacity is needed.
04.Do we need an ongoing contract?
Not always. Depending on the issue, THSP can provide ongoing retained support, a defined project, training or one-off health and safety services. We will recommend a proportionate route based on what the business needs.
