Get added protection against disputes with HR Defence

Performance improvement can be a sensitive process, with some cases leading to disputes and legal action. Following advice from BrightHR experts and using BrightBase documentation will ensure your actions are compliant, and we’ll put a guarantee on it.

With HR Defence, if you’ve followed our guidance, received the required sign-off from a BrightHR advisor and your actions subsequently lead to a dispute, we’ll cover the legal fees.

We encourage Canadian businesses to act with confidence, backed by HR experts. We’re putting our money where our mouth is.
