Infinity HR is an outsourced HR and HR consultancy service for Bradford employers, delivered by phone and video. Nine in ten businesses in the district have fewer than ten staff, so most are too small to employ an HR manager of their own. We give you a dedicated, CIPD-qualified consultant and a 24/7 advice line for a fixed monthly fee.

What Bradford employers should know
Scheme you can use
Free help when you recruit
If you are hiring, SkillsHouse, Bradford's employment service, offers your business free recruitment help — from writing a job description to running interviews — and we can put the contracts, onboarding and probation process in place once you hire. On ONS's Annual Population Survey, unemployment in the district is 7.5% (April 2025 to March 2026), against 4.6% for Yorkshire and The Humber and 4.5% for Great Britain, so there are many local people looking for work.

Setting salaries against the local market
When you set salaries or review a pay structure, benchmark against local pay rather than national averages. ONS figures for 2025 put median full-time pay for people working in the district at £688 a week (£17.81 an hour before overtime), compared with £766.60 a week across Great Britain.
Contracts and policies for care and manufacturing employers
If you run a care, health or manufacturing business, your contracts and policies need to cover shift patterns and absence, and your health and safety arrangements need written safe systems of work. Both sectors are well above the national share here: human health and social work is the largest employing sector at 18.2% of employee jobs (ONS, 2024), against 14.2% across Great Britain, and manufacturing accounts for 11.6% against 7.3%.

HR for a small firm, without an HR manager
If your business is too small to justify a full-time HR manager, you are typical here: ONS business counts for 2026 show 17,195 enterprises in the district, of which 89.1% are micro businesses with up to nine employees (88.2% across Yorkshire and The Humber) and a further 9.0% employ 10 to 49. Our service covers contracts, handbooks, disciplinaries and grievances for you, without adding a salary.
Scheme you can use
Joining the West Yorkshire Fair Work Charter
If you want to show you are a good employer, the West Yorkshire Fair Work Charter, developed by the Mayor of West Yorkshire and run through the West Yorkshire Combined Authority, is free for any West Yorkshire employer to join, whatever its size or sector. You register an interest and complete a self-assessment against five pillars; the Security pillar expects safe, predictable working conditions including the Real Living Wage. We can help you check where your policies stand before you apply.
If you face a claim
If an employee brings a claim against you
Leeds Employment Tribunal
West Gate, 6 Grace Street, Leeds LS1 2RP
If a member of staff brings an employment tribunal claim against your business, GOV.UK's court finder gives Leeds Employment Tribunal (West Gate, 6 Grace Street, Leeds LS1 2RP) as the nearest venue for claims against employers from a Bradford postcode; Bradford's own hearing centre at Phoenix House handles only immigration and benefits cases. Wherever it is heard, a tribunal looks at whether you followed a fair process, so clear contracts, a documented procedure and written records are what we help you get right from day one.
