Empowering Your People. Fueling Your Success.

“Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed people can change the world. Indeed. It is the only thing that ever has.” – Margaret Mead

 

As a business leader, you recognise that your people are crucial to your organisation’s growth. But between running operations, driving strategy, and staying ahead of the competition, there’s often not enough time—or bandwidth—to manage HR in a way that truly reflects your company’s values and culture. That’s where we come in.

REAL HR Inc. has been partnering with forward-thinking businesses since 2009. As we step into 2025, our mission remains unchanged: to deliver flexible, customised HR solutions that scale with your organisation. We take the time to understand your business, your market, and your people—so our strategies align with your goals.

We’re not your typical HR provider. Our model provides you with access to seasoned HR professionals at a fraction of the cost of hiring a full-time employee. Whether you require ongoing support or assistance with a one-time project, we deliver expert, practical HR services tailored to your specific needs.

At REAL HR, we see human resources as the engine oil of your business—keeping everything running smoothly and efficiently.

Stay Focused on What You Do Best

You started your business because you’re passionate about your work—not about managing HR policies, paperwork, or compliance issues. We take those distractions off your plate so you can stay focused on growing your business.

Protect Your Business from Risk

Employment laws are constantly evolving. We stay up-to-date with the latest regulations and industry standards, so you don’t have to. From reviewing policies to flagging HR risks in real time, we help you avoid costly mistakes and stay compliant.

We act as a trusted extension of your team—delivering professional, ethical HR support while keeping you informed about anything that could impact your people or your bottom line. You’ll never have to wonder if you’re “doing HR right”—because we’ve got it covered.

Flexible, Custom Support

Whether you need one-time help, a project completed, or ongoing HR support, we offer flexible options that fit your business and your budget:

  • Ad Hoc (hourly) for quick, one-off needs
  • Project-based for defined deliverables
  • Business Maintenance Plan (BMP) for consistent, cost-effective HR coverage

Our BMP plan works like a timeshare—giving you access to expert HR support when and where you need it, without the overhead of a full-time hire.
