Can't Get the Staff? Part One
Introduction
Hiring reliable, motivated staff is increasingly challenging for employers. Navigating through employment legislation, data protection laws, and EU directives can feel overwhelming for small business owners. Having trained hundreds of managers, I'm sharing some effective strategies to help you cut through the red tape and successfully hire great people.
It’s Not All Doom and Gloom

Designing and Advertising the Job
We've all encountered the "employee from hell"?"someone who disrupts the workplace, consuming your time and affecting team morale. These challenging employees come in various types:
- Moaners: Poor customer service partners.
- Liars: Untrustworthy with company property.
- Bullies: Scare both staff and customers.
- Addicts: Whether drink, drugs, or gambling, they spell trouble.
- Lovers: Workplace romances that can end in conflict.
- Hypochondriacs: Often absent when needed.
- Gossips: Cause discord among team members.
Do these sound familiar? Worried about your next hire? Let's explore solutions.
Crafting an Effective Job Specification
Crafting a robust job specification is crucial. It helps prevent discrimination complaints and enables you to identify candidates who can become valuable assets. The specification should include essential skills and experience required for the role, covering areas like experience, training, special knowledge, adaptability, and disposition.
For instance, if you need someone to produce client contracts using Word and Excel, include a skills test in the hiring process. Clearly outline job requirements, such as physical activity, to manage expectations and avoid surprises later.
Cost-Effective Recruitment Strategies
You don’t need to spend excessively on recruitment. Before seeking help from agencies, consult with local businesses about successful agencies they've used. Remember, agencies often charge a hefty fee and may not always have your best interests at heart.
Consider placing a small ad in local papers and using resources like the Jobcentre. Inform your staff about vacancies?"don’t hesitate to consider friends or relatives, provided they meet the job criteria. Utilize any free advertising outlets. When advertising, include closing and interview dates to streamline the process and reduce unnecessary inquiries.
By designing a clear job specification and utilizing cost-effective advertising methods, you'll attract quality candidates without hassle.
