Salary · Bad Hire Cost
For Business Owners
More than filling roles — we take the people problems off your plate so you can get back to running the business.
We know what keeps
The challenges of employing, training and retaining people are rarely talked about openly — but felt every single day. Lost productivity. Rising costs. Strained teams. Leaders spending time on people problems instead of growing the business. Sound familiar?
The average cost of a bad hire in New Zealand sits at 1.5 to 3 times the employee's annual salary. We remove that risk before it starts — replacing guesswork with a pre-vetted shortlist.
Senior staff pulled from their own work. No documented processes. Compliance training rushed or skipped. We support induction from day one and keep compliance properly covered.
Disengaged employees cost businesses through absenteeism, lower output and higher turnover. We find people who want to be there — not just people who showed up to an ad.
Poorly worded agreements. Inadequate documentation. Misclassified contractors. The consequences are substantial. For our placed workers, those risks sit entirely with us — not you.
In civil construction and traffic management, H&S is a legal and moral obligation. We manage inductions, compliance documentation and WorkSafe obligations for every worker we place — keeping your site protected.
A single bad hire for a mid-level role can cost up to $59,000. A business with two disengaged staff is paying for 100% capacity and getting 80%. The numbers are always worse than the gut feeling suggests.
