About Guardian Support

Guardian Support was formed in 2011 out of a very
simple observation.

We could see that the legislative pendulum of
employment law and health and safety was swinging
more and more in the favour of employees, and that
businesses were finding it increasingly difficult to
keep up with the constant legal changes and business
requirements.

Hence, Guardian Support was created.

Our ethos is simple. We guard businesses, and support
employers.

We put your business needs at the forefront of everything
we do to ensure that you are compliant whilst getting
the most out of your employees.

It’s a simple question of, do you want your business to
develop and grow whilst remaining compliant without
having to sacrifice your sanity?

If so, then our award-winning HR, Employment Law and
Health and Safety Consultancy Service is the answer that
you have been looking for.
